I like the lighting effects here. Did you use a flash?

I did use a flash...a slave 580 EX II controlled by another 580 EX II on the body. Otherwise , the room was dark.

It is a heart shaped strainer. I had never needed one until I bought some Roiboos recently. Ive been more of a pre-bagged guy for most of my life.

Thank you. I used an Overlay blend on a duplicated layer in CS3 to help with the contrast.
