Glasses and Colored Water

Photographed on a light table, lit from below and behind. The ball on the Martini glass is colored blue so I got an idea to put colored water in it and another glass. I cut a small piece of clear plexiglass and raised the corner of the Martini glass up and then removed it in post processing.

D850, 55mm f/2.8 AIS Micro Nikkor.

Nice photo! May I ask how big (size) of the glasses are? Why you use Micro lens?

They were just normal sized wine and martini glasses. I used the 55mm f/2.8 Micro lens because it focuses very close and it is insanely sharp. I chose it over my 100mm f/2.8 Micro Nikkor because it has deeper depth of field.
