I’m on a health kick…..a ‘normal’ size helping of red wine contains up to 105 calories. As you can imagine this glass can hold nearly half a bottle if you want it to. So I thought I’d photograph one of my best friends that is not allowed to visit, be whiffed at or supped for the next month at least. Isn’t she pretty though. ;D

This is for The Gallery at Sticky Fingers, an online photo gallery with this week’s prompt being ‘Still Life’

  3. Is “normal” one of those 125ml down the hatch don’t hit the sides on the way down glasses?

    Oh dear – 105?

    Oh dear…

    (yes it is very pretty indeed)

  5. I adore a glass of wine too especially in a large glass, it’s my absolute favourite but right now I’m on a strict diet for my holiday next week so I have an incy winsy little glass to indulge with….

  6. Great picture – beautiful glass! I don’t do red wine but I imagine chardonnay wouldn’t have photographed as well….. Good for you with the health kick. I’d join you but….emmm, would rather not.

  11. My favourite picture so far! Red wine is also a close friend of mine but I’m not sure I could just leave her on the window sill like that!

  16. Lovely pic – and I think for a lot of people that glass of wine at the end of a long day/week does mean a bit of “Still Life”… that moment when the kids are in bed, and you can relax…
