Well, you sure can have a lot of fun with 3 bottles of liquor, two pieces old barn wood and some time on your hands – haha! I set up a light box behind the red wood wall and bounced some of the excess back, to light up the front of the bottles, off a reflector card to get these pics in my basement. My buddy Rob Moses thought I’d just taken them out back in my yard – haha!
You’ll see from these pics the only bottle of liquor opened was the Grey Goose. I have reached the age where my bones don’t recover from hangovers as quickly as they used to so I have given up the sweet love of alcohol. Some people say “Well, come on man, just have one or two!”. I would love to, but I’ll have a couple and they taste so good, I’ll have a couple more and then a few more and so on! Then, like so many bad decisions made in the late hours of the evening, I always regret my poor choice in the morning – haha!
These bottles of liquor all came to me in various ways. The rum was a trade for some video lighting equipment that I had to drop off the next day, the rye was a gift from a neighbour who had it in their basement for 30 years – it’s an unopened bottle from 1986. Then, the Grey Goose was an empty bottle my buddy gave me and I just filled it up with water – haha!
It was pretty fun doing these pics – so I guess I eventually found a way to get some liquor shots in – without the hangover!
Thanks for stopping by!
