From one state to another

OK, so I'm completely stretching here!
This is my "Travel" shot for the One Night Stand Challenge. I worked a long day and by the time I was off the sun was setting and strangely I wound up with one of these in my face! :o)
Lame travel shot but isn't that the nature of one night stands? Some are amazing and some are...well, like this shot! :o)

Cool shot

[Daryl O'Hare]

Hahaha, nothing like a pub shot right? It IS a pub shot, RIGHT? :)

[Maggiemae]

But what is it to be in your face? A glass of beer? a light ray? A drop of golden sunshine?

[jerry plume]

@darylo Lol! Yes, nothing like a pub shot! :)
@maggiemae All of the above! ;)

[Susan]

I can relate! love the title too!

[Donna]

very cool! my husband does lots of traveling (internationally) for work, and apparently the first photo he sends each time to his buddies is of his first beer in each new place!

[jerry plume]

@seahawker Sounds like my kind of business trips! ;o)

[Terri Morris]

Nice photo anyway. I like the abstract feel of it.

[Sally Ings]

Splendid interpretation!

[Gena Pegg]

That's your story and your sticking to it, huh? Well, it is a good story and a good shot! (literally!)

[mum13/Michelle]

Great story...great shot

[Michelle C.]

Nice interpretation! Love your processing!

[bkb in the city]

[Megan]

Brilliant in originality! And that's not just a plain shot of a glass of beer... What program do you use for your PP? Love this effect!

[KWind]

Very cool! I'm not sure I understand what it is but I like it!

[aurorajane]

Nice shot.

[jerry plume]

@24atlantic I use PS and Topazlabs. This has an overlay of a scratched piece of metal for texture. You can get a free trial of Topazlabs for 30 days for free. They have a great newsletter with tons of free tutorials too! :)

[Megan]

@orangecrush Thanks Jerry, will try it out!

[Sassik]

Neat editing! I can see water turning into ice...

[SarahP]

[Sebella O'Donovan]

LOL...great photo.

[Rick Schies]

Your processing fits perfectly

[Rachel Withey]

Clever concept, great processing and I like the reflection. Have to say I thought travel would be one of the easiest ONSs and it really wasn't. Enjoying it lots though - thanks for organising it

[Cindy]

You made it a great shot with some cool processing!

[Carole Boyles]

Great shot and cool processing effect. Hope you enjoyed your beer.

Awesomeness---fav !

[bardejov]

Shooting while drinking, are we ? :-) Love this scratched surface texture.

[MaryBeth Dailey]

That is what is great about the ONS! I am so bummed I did not participate,but I got caught up in the "photo project from HADES" on Monday...so all thoughts of ONS challenge went out the window. Sigh.

[jerry plume]

@bardejov ;)

[Taffy]

Wow -- not lame at all! It's clever and makes a great b&w.

[lunaksi]

Haha, looks like a nice way to end a day :) Love the added texture!

[Kitti Nelson]

Shoot a shot? - shot of a shooter? love your PP

[Wendy]

Great effect!

[jenny tucker]
