    Hi Richard,

    I think #3 is a winner. #1 looks interesting, but since I can't see the whole pic without scrolling vertically, it's a little hard for me to judge the composition.

    Nice work. thumb.gif

    Love the #3rd shot, hot colours and contrast clap.gif
    I also like the bottles, it sort of plays tricks with your eyes.

    Very nicely done Richard thumb.gif .... Skippy :D

    Hi Skippy, thanks for the feedback. The lighting on the bottles almost gives them an 'oily' appearance.

    Cheers, Richard.

    Intersting to me, but I'm a photographer and will take a pix of just about anything! These are wonderful to my eye. Love the bottles and the texture colors of the leaf.wings.gif

    Hi Idlewild & JustME,

    Thanks for your comments. The bottles were in fact at a friends winery and had been left out in the open for a number of years - so no chance of them getting 'contaminated' with wine. :D But at least they made an interesting subject to photograph so they were of some use.
    Cheers, Richard.

    I love this 'get in close' tight-crop style. It makes every day things look so graphic and abstract.
