Poor Image: Umbrella Drink

Current:

This image is too busy. Can we find a better illustration?

Keep Until Better Image Suggested, although I would prefer something that has more focus on the drinks or makes them stand out a little more. Is there another shot from that scene that does that?

Eh, I'm pretty sure there's a lot of clearer images of umbrella cocktails in GIS.

[1]◊ [2]◊ [3]◊ [4]

I like the third and fourth. I'd probably still prefer an example from a work, though.

Let's settle for work-related, it shouldn't be impossible.

Garth's drink in Wayne's World?◊

That's not bad. A little low on focus on it, but it works.

I like these RL suggestions enough that I'd put them on Image Links.

Agreed. Here's some other suggestions:

• Different angle of the OP: 1◊, 2◊
• Same movie, different scene◊
• Closeup of Garth's drink◊

Garth's is too over-the-top for me. I like Willbyr's #2 better. But best of all would be a scene where's there's actually an umbrella) or some other kind of frou-frou) in the drink; an orange slice and cherry is a pretty common garnish.

I'm looking for one...

Be Somebody!◊

The first thing that came to my mind was Wilbur◊ from The Rescuers Down Under

Not perfect (no umbrella) but it's got the fancy glass, the weird color and an uncommon and oversized garnish: Mad Men — Don Draper's Hawaiian Vacation)

Oh, here's another one, also from Mad Men: Mai Tai◊ non-standard container, oversized garnish, umbrella.

I actually like that there's no umbrella. It shows that it's not just the umbrella that's the trope, but the overly colourful and garnished drink that's the trope. It's also got good focus in the image.

That first Mad Men pic is pretty good...I like it a little better than the other one.

I prefer the second one. It's not as blurry, at the very least...

Hmm, I like best the images from Zodiac. But those from Mad Men would work as well.

I haven't seen a favorite yet.

A bit dark but very good.

I like it.

I'm good with Coulson, but what about the shot when Hunter shows up and there's a more frontal view of the drinks with the lighting behind them? Would that look any better?

If memory serves, it's a little short on the umbrellas; with only one umbrella-straw.

19 FTW.

Lighter perhaps?
