drink up and cool down

This is really nicely done but the glass should be full. Those are some of the best real ice cubes that I've seen.

Really nice! The glassware is attractive, I think the pitcher is turned to a nice angle, and I like the lemon styling.

I love your depth of field. Great crisp focus all the way through the entire subject and the related components and nicely standing off the background placed far enough away to be obviously background. So often the depth of field is far to shallow for my taste. I'll second the comment about the ice cubes, those are some of the best I've seen. The colors and saturation are great, one can almost taste the tea. I too would favor seeing the glass filled and ready to be served. Thanks for sharing.

ice cubes:
start with filtered water, boil the filtered water in a clean pan for ten minutes, let it cool down. then boil the water again for ten minutes. some will argue you do not need to boil the water twice but i like to. let the water cool down again then fill your ice-cube trays. be careful not to leave the ice cubes in the freezer too long.

So, I'm guessing the filtered water gives your ice cubes a basis more clarity, and the extra boiling time is getting all the oxygen out, so there are no bubbles.
