Losing it
Well, not a lot of technical detail to discuss on this shot. I was out to lunch with the family, and of course my camera was with me. I liked the light streaming through the window in the background and I thought it cast a nice glow on the table. I was looking at the glass and thought an ice cube could look nice sitting there, so I grabbed one and plopped it on the table...
I rather like the result. It seems cinematic or artistic to me in some way. I can't quite put an accurate description on it but think it is interesting in it's simplicity. Maybe that is it...
By the way, the title of this photo is from a song by Rush of the same name. It is awesome and if you are not familiar with it, I recommend that you go listen to it immediately. They have a huge body of impressive work and I feel this ranks among their best.
Single exposure, f/5.6, 0ev, ISO 100. Minor contrast adjustments in PSE and some straightening in Aperture.
