 It started with a backlit misty glass of water and ice. The water was supposed to be sparkling (carbonized) mineral water and it was a setup shot with ordinary tap water.

Then came the straw. And then the lemon. At the end came the splash. None of these were planned. Even the straw was supposed to be red. At that moment, i completely forgot about the bubbles and the sparkling water :-)

I really didn't want this to look too much like my entry in "Three Techniques II" but it happened. I could have shifted the yellow to orange, but i would be weird to have an orange lemon. And the lemon was to small to pass as an orange :-)

Well, there it is. There will be outtakes with some different concepts.

One of my favourites. Simple, crisp and clean. My only (very small) niggle is the marking on the to the left of the picture; feel like I want to get a cloth to polish it away......

Well done. Very good illustration of water, and the yellow straw and lemon complement each other well and add some interest.
