Sky, Daniel and Justin...getting comments like that from folks much more skilled in the art than I, make them very very special to me. Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!

Excellent simple study of light and shadow - you are a master of the still life with creative objects and themes, and always so well composed.

Funny subject, even funnier title and a perfect composition, bottles: I like it! Nice take on the theme. -- db.

Bottles - this is an amazing photo. The shadows - the swirls - I'm totally captivated. Take me to your leader. Seriously, you make me want to take better photos. :-)

You are always so creative with your compositions. I like everything about this, the textured background contrasted against the smoothness of the spirals (which is always a visually interesting shape) and the strong clearly defined shadows. A great image for the challenge. Lora

Very nicely done, bottles. I love how you manage to take something so simple and turn it into a work of art! It is a perfect image for the Challenge theme!
