Lens: Canon RF 28-70mm f/2.0 L USM
Location: Iceland, Reykjav
Date: Oct 25, 2025
Aperture: 5.6

I thought this would illustrate many different ideas of contrast: white vs black. morning vs. night, health vs. intoxication.

Shot with a single Godox AD100 Pro flash with an octabox behind the glass, a black paper carton was used in between to shield the glass from direct light, and with two white flags on each side of the glass to reflect light from the flash, to give the glass a soft even edge of light. Photoshop was used to extend the black background and remove unwanted milk drops from within the glass.
