Description
I posted a photograph on Monday morning of a Manhattan cocktail and called it Light & Glass: I'll Take Manhattan, and provided a link to the song by Rodgers & Hart.
In her comment, Chris reminded me of another song I like even better called First We Take Manhattan, which is by Leonard Cohen. If you're not familiar with the song, you can check it out here.
My favorite lines from the song:
And I thank you for those items that you sent me
The monkey and the plywood violin
I practiced every night, now I'm ready
First we take Manhattan, then we take Berlin
I HAD to do another version of the Manhattan cocktail, just so I could reference the song! LOL! Thanks to Chris for the reminder.
(You know how every once in a while something makes you think of a certain person? My sister-in-law Cindy is going to love this. :) Hi Cindy! * waves * We're both big Leonard Cohen fans, and she was there when I took the photograph.)

Stunning colours!
I like the song too. And the pic!
great shot
an exuberant saturated-light vision of a glass, where because of the intense light, you have almost abstract shapes...like a collage. The table surface, here looking almost white in this light, is a wonderful cutoff for the chair and wall behind: Real minimal, abstract art stuff. Fine image and a lot of fun too.
Cool, excellent capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
