Very nicely done! The bokeh from the nearest point right to the farthest is superb!

Yah, me too, Alex. I had a go at it in PS and here's what I came up with. I cropped it a shade and changed the color to more like what it is actually. That is the wooden baseboard on my kitchen sink, so what does it look like now? Thanks for commenting and regards, -mikey

Very nice perspective. Except I would prefer it without the dark rectangle to the right

Thanks for the kind words, y'all. I like this image, simple tho it may be, it does something for/to me(?). Not much distance, but ... oh well. Now, for the controversy ";^) they're apple juice bottles ":^( To make it even more distasteful to the beer drinkers in the crowd, I use them for goat's milk, ha! Take that! Cheers, and don't drink too much of that Guinness, ya hear! -mikey

Beautiful and I like how you did the DOF.

Very nicely done Michael. Those aren't really beer bottles are they? If so; Rod and Paul could get these and say they only drink one beer a day ;-)

I don't know about you Rod but after 4 and a half gallons of beer I don't think I could line up the emptys quite so straight. -COAmature

Nicely done this does look good, well done. I wish our beer came in half gallon bottles:-)

Nice shot, Michael. The DOF works well here, and you've really captured the look of the glass.
