Continuing with my response to your tutorial request on the Dark and Stormy post, these also were backlight, but in the case of the 2nd and 4th photos I also had another light in front so I'd get the reflection on the glasses. The second photo also had some top light. Isn't the mimosa a great drink? One of my faves.

You sure make them look as delicious as they are! I've never tried them with Grand Marnier nor bitters.
