My setting were all over the place but if I remember right, they were 60mm at 1600 iso, shutter speed of 250 and white balance was tungsten. Here is the original pic before pp. I posted this on my facebook along with all my other good pics and this is the first time someone said they would buy it. I used 7 up and a friend of mine told me to use champagne. Duh, why didn't I think of that! One other thing is I used ofc at 105 aimed against a white background and another white piece of cardboard off to the left side.

Mike,
Im not sure if this would be helpful but I was looking at this thread the other night: second page

http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/beyond-basics/225858-strobist-post-your-photos-setups.html

there are some similar pics on there and I noticed there is much more contrast between the background and subject/water which really makes it pop

I need to find you the video I used for this...........you can get much better results. I know I used white paper behind and under.....maybe even some aluminum foil to get some light from underneath.
