Red Red Wine

Nowadays I don't do much 'photography' anymore. After 59 years as a hobby and a profession, I've grown a bit tired of it, I think. I do still regularly engage in creative photo editing, mainly for screen printing on floatglass and wall objects on PVC canvas, like this one...

Very nice composition, requires talent and inspiration! I'd like to know how you achieved this.

It's simpler than you might think, but this often is the case when you know how the trick works.

I edited the photo of 1 glass of red wine using a plugin to achieve a so-called 'hammered effect' (the frayed edges you see), and then I used a plugin named Tile reflection. You can find both plugins in countless editing programs, from Photoshop to GIMP.

In the Tile reflection plugin, you can (usually) change size, position and the number of tiles; I always choose the smallest possible spacing between the tiles horizontally and vertically.

As the next step, I removed a number of lines around the base of the glass that didn't really work well and mirrored the image, because I think this benefits the composition.
