This is how I read this shot;
"Half Full" of course refers to the popular saying "Is the glass half empty or half full?".
The optimism that the option "half full" stands for is reflected in this photo.
That thin, barely visible jet of water turning into the fountain that we see falling from the table - as if there was much more in the glass than what one would think was possible.
This corresponds great with the optimistic notion of "making the best of it".
What looks as very little can still be worth a whole lot - both literally (as the jet of water in the picture turning into those cascades) and in one's mind (seeing the cup as "half full")
I am very glad you like the series, it is something I have been wanting to do for a while. With reference to the Half Full shot this is a beautiful interpretation and I absolutely love it. I have to admit this is not how I looked at the shot during its creation but this is certainly how I will look at it now.
Thank you so much for such a wonderful comment.

Keep up the great work!
Impressed with your lighting... such darkness yet all the detail is well lit.. very nice.
