I took this photo in café Nostalgica, Ottawa.
I took this picture by placing the camera on my beer glass to accomodate for a very low shutter speed.
The standing girl in the picture is a bartender and she is trying to do something. What do you think it is? I will post the answer in 2-3 days ... I just want to see if someone can guess right. ha ha

Let me know if you think I was able to capture the moment well or not.
Cheers

at first I cropped it in my way, just the parts which make the pic stayed, the rest cropped out.So I have two(actually I must say one and a half)girls,one big beer glass,spot lights and some shelves.Then I used the sephia tones,turned negative ,changed some color tunes,made some color adjustments,gave some contrast,changed the color depth and again turned negative, so I framed again; and here it is,hope u like it.

I tried to crop it to show which part I would make verticle. Of course if this were a full verticle shot you woudl be able to see the woman's face too. I also added a frame for fun. JP
