Bellini Time!
365 Project Day 107: April 17, 2011
I was packing today, and I figured I could speed my process and make the move a bit easier by consuming a few consumables. This would be a bellini, 1 part peach nectar, 2 parts Prosecco. (ideally it's made with fresh peach puree, but I like the nectar just fine, and it doesn't require blending this way...) I ended up getting bored with packing, and since my stuff was already in such disarray, I went ahead and moved some tables around to experiment with shooting backlit glass (not too difficult once you know the tricks, but a huge pain if you don't). I really wanted to get it with some fresh bubbles, but had some difficulty with the process of pouring, finding my equipment, getting the flash in place, turning off the lights, and snapping the photo before the bubbles subsided. Of course, the only way to get new bubbles is to drink it and make a new one, and I had to do a fair amount of experimentation with lighting and such. So this was the end of my packing for the day, but I am 1 bottle of Prosecco and 1 bottle of peach nectar lighter for my move now... :)
