Congrats on the new top row entry! I love the reflection - it's like a whole little world contained on the surface.

lol you know, I never see spirits in photos (but I would like to!) and i don't see one here. Someone usually has to draw big arrows and circles to point it out to me lol. This is a beautiful shot and you did a wonderful job capturing the rustic nature of the piece. Congrats on your new 3rd PB!

Are you the spirit in the reflection? Nicely framed.

Distilled? Part of it looks suspiciously clean and shiny. But that gets a nice reflection of trees which reinforces the idea of a moonshine still.
