(Day 183) - Half Empty or Half Full?

Photographing this baffling tilting water made me think about that baffling question in my title. And it got me thinking. Since this photo marks the halfway point of my project, does that make my project half complete or half incomplete? LOL. So happy to have made it this far in year two of my project!

Now that's the everlasting question - depending on whether you're a pessimist or an optimist! I love the shot with its unexpected twist! Did you find out by accident that the reflections in the glass would give this effect? Either way - very clever! Fav

You all are so very generous to take time to comment, view, and fav my photograph! I read each one and I thank you all very very much!

John (@clarkafb_brat) asked me how I created this photo. I tilted the wine glass so that the water would slide at an angle. I also tilted my camera while holding it vertically so that it would be leveled with the wine glass. Therefore it only seems as if the wine glass is right side up! Hope that made sense lol

@rhos - Thanks much Ann! Yes I did find out my accident! Wasn’t until after taking the shot that I noticed the pattern in the water. The blinds kind of gives away the angle that the wine glass was actually in. lol
