Photorealism

“Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one.”
Albert Einstein 1879-1955

Are you an optimist or a pessimist? A dreamer or a realist? Is the glass half empty or half full? Assuming there is an atmosphere, the glass is completely full. Half of the contents is liquid; the other half is gas. Or is that just another illusion?

  1. Sunshine throwing a shadow of a glass on the leafy table cloth through sunshine in the glass - illusion of yellow. Colours are only different wavelengths of light - another illusion. Hope you have a REAL good Sunday :-).

  4. I like your interpretation; the glass is always full, but not always of the same thing.

  5. So what you're really saying here is that in order to get to the liquid, you have to pass gas? ;)

    Interesting angles and shadow.. pretty shot.
