I love to sip beer

This is what happens when you buy un-chilled bear and keep them in the deep freezer and forget to take out. Soon after the beer-ice started to melt it was forming this interesting block inside. This shot was shot with only the torch lighing from above. I could not really decide whether to crop the torch or not, but having it gives a feeling that the bottle is huge.

From the thumbnail I thought this was a cave with the light shining down. This shot has some fantastic detail, although I think the spotlight at the top with the lens flare kinda detracts from that. Cool pic nonetheless.

I also thought it was a photo taken from a cave from the thumbnail. It's amazing that Fosters is Australia's most famous beer but also our worst beer. Go figure.

I've done that, especially when your trying to get it cold quickly but forget about it. I tend to agree with Darren, hardly anyone drinks Fosters in Australia yet it's the biggest export!

Nice take Shuva!
