Is the Glass Half Empty or Half Full by olivetreeann

Is the Glass Half Empty or Half Full

This one's for all my 365 friends who have felt uninspired lately- a not so great shot of the glassware on our table at dinner last night while I waited for Jeff to pay the bill. See- even I can take an uninspired shot! We're all feeling it together!
Wow. Can you go out for a meal?
I would like to take that shot.

Either way it's got wine in it!!

Somehow your uninspired shot looks so much more artful than some of the ones I have been posting

thank you for thinking of me ;) Atleast, when you are uninspired in the shot, you make up for it with the processing. And going out to dinner, what is that? Almost a year now since that happened for me.

Meals out seem a distant memory think it was Christmas 2019! I'm a realist if your filling the glass it's half full if your emptying it its half empty!

Meh is what I am feeling often but with inspiration from this most supportive community of people, we will all make it though.

If you are able to go out for meals the glass is definitely half full

Turned out well. I don't have your skills at creative post processing. When I decide to do it most time, it takes soooooo long.

This is wonderful. It looks like an art nouveau scene, I love it.

Fun editing

Nice composition

It may have felt uninspired, but it's a very successful and engaging image!

Lucky you to get any wine at all! Love the processing.
January 18th, 2021  
It is always half full ☺️
January 18th, 2021  
oh half full definitely
January 18th, 2021  
It is a cool shot though

Thank you so much to each one of you! Yes, the processing saved this picture- without that effect it looks rather boring. I so appreciate your comments and favs!

We are thankful that restaurants have been able to be open around here. But they are struggling! Hours are drastically reduced and the number of guests inside has been also drastically reduced. We were talking with the owner of Kabob House and he said it has been very difficult. He is a small establishment and the effect on his income forced him to let staff go which he did not want to do. His wonderful little restaurant is usually packed on a Saturday night (I'd say up to 30 customers when all the tables are full). There were 6 of us in there dining in and one take out customer that night. On top of the limitations you have people who would normally eat out staying at home and the college is closed so there are no students around either. Even the streets were more empty than not- which is also unusual for this town. Most of our restaurants are hoping they can survive.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond @ludwigsdiana Sorry to disappoint ladies- it's water! What looks like wine is actually the table reflected in the water. We didn't bring any with us, but you are allowed to supply your own at this one. Others have it on their menu if they have a liquor license.

@rjb71 I like your interpretation of half full/half empty!

@randystreat There really is no science to what I do- I put the picture in the processing program most of the time and scroll through until I see something I like!
