After a long day of cross-country skiing in -20 weather, there's nothing a hearty Canadian enjoys more than a cold beer...
While that is probably true, my case is somewhat more pathetic: After a long day of staring at a computer screen in an overheated office, there's nothing this Canadian enjoys more than a cold beer.
Thank-you for looking. PrintError is right. It is a dark beer (actually Irish Red, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_red_ale#Irish_red_ale). There are indeed traces of red. I have taken tons of pictures for this week's assignment (mostly frozen waterfalls) but like this one for the subtle red/black combination.
On my calibrated monitor, the difference is quite obvious. You can also make out a frost line on the outside of the glass, just below the surface of the beer. But I find most LCD monitors are way too high contrast and subtlety is often lost. I still use CRT monitors for digital photography; they seem to produce more consistent and predictable results (at least in my price range).
The reddish brown colour is quite apparent on my LCD screen too.I had in mind something similar for my entry before I sighted this so I''ll post it later.
