LOTS more than ten green bottles - old medicine bottle collection in a small rural museum. I love the contrast between the blue "poison" bottles in the foreground and also the lonely red one on the left hand side. Might make a good pic for the comp.

Nice to see the pre-plastic bottles Sue. I think it makes a good entry for the contest. The contrast does look good. Here's to you on a fine foto.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

This is really cool. There are so many shades of blue and green in this. Great Capture.

Some people are like slinkies, not good for anything but will give you a good laugh when you push them down the stairs. :)

I gave this one a 7 in the booth because although it is a bit soft in focus, it has good patterning, color, and interest. Prior to submitting, though, I would have suggested either cropping or cloning out the label and shelf edge on the bottom. The inclusion of those two indicate that this is an exhibit, pigeon-holing it into a single category. The image without those two features moves it closer to being art and adaptable for much more. Just a thought.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

Thanks for your advice Nik - the soft focus is because the bottles were inside a glass cabinet and I certainly take on board your other comments. Thanks for taking the time to write.

What is life, if full of care, we have no time to stand and stare - and take pictures!

I like it very much. Interesting and original. I agree, the contrasts of color, especially the blue and red one amidst the sea of green add a extra element of interest. I also agree with Nik about taking out the exhibit card. Maybe rotate the photo just a bit and take out both the card and part of the empty right side....all the way to the reflection in the upper right. Saved to explore more!

I like the almost ethereal look that is helped by the slight reflection in the glass of the cabinet. This is a super array of bottles - and I think a very worthy and unique entry in the contest :)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .
