 Oh man, what a challenge. My first idea was to take a rush hour traffic shot. And then a shot of apparel of a child and one of an adult (shoes perhaps). But then I wanted to shoot something categorically used by adults and only adults. So I obliged and shot this one. I don't have proper lights and backdrops, so I used the best, purest backdrop available: The Sky. Filled up a champagne flute with apple juice and shot away. I actually accidentally shot on 1000 ISO and had to Neat Image the crap out of it. Luckily the lines are simple and clean.

Very nice colors, I would have loved to see just a little more of the base. Still love it.
