Good play on words Charlie! These look like tiny little bottles so I guess your won't get too many drinks out of them! :-) CJ

The colors are nice and rich. Red is such a hard color to work with and you did it well. -dtallakson

Thanks, Nico. I made no color changes. The rocks were white/gray a year ago, when my wife used them to plant paperwhites. But they have rusted over the winter. The light is mostly natural (setup on kitchen countertop near window), with some influence from overhead incandescent light. These two bottles went back into the drawer after the photoshoot. But their big brother was laid to rest the evening before in the recycle bin, where all empty bottles end up. Alas, we knew ye well, and we loved ye well.

Make mine a double! :-) What next!? :-)

A love strong, clean images and this shot appeals to me immediately.

I am intrigued by the bold red colours. Was it really so intense? What was the light source?

Is the content any good? was also a question I wanted to ask... :-) :-)

Kind regards Nico
