I like this artistic and creative shot. Nice angle of your shot capturing all that wonderful detail. Your colors, capture of light and composition are excellent. A pleasure to view. Thanks for sharing!

brilliantly created with effective use of the software available to you. The presentation almost comes across as a pastel medium having been used ..its an impressive shot and well structured .

While I intensely enjoy the artistic quality of this image, all the effects are wonderful, I just can't absorb the love for the cork tops. With the middle one having such grand detail I'm put off by the one in the front. Sorry! (1/2) The image does have wonderful artistry - great color and lighting, but I want that front topper a bit different! Thanks for sharing.

Fine set up with creative artistry in the digital darkroom with the use of filters.
I like the lighting, texture, soft reflections and the diagonal like placement of the jars.
I find the focus to be soft on the first jar and last on the cork top and razor sharp on the middle one..I would have preferred the first jar being sharp and the last two being soft to not distract.
Fine creative work Mary Eileen.

An enjoyable photograph. This is not about bottles but about artistic presentation of bottles. I like the reflection and background setting.

Focus on the object is good. Well done and thanks for sharing.

Great work! This looks to be a painting, but it is a photo. Your enhancements make the subject seem quite old and even dangerous! Do not pop those corks!

Ok, this one makes me want to get busy and play with some photography. This is really cool. I have no idea how you did it but I am intrigued. Love the natural tones. The plays of browns and neutral colors. It keeps me guessing. Looking around trying to see what is what. There is an element of mystery. What's photo and what isn't. Well done. Everyone can't say that about their work.

    Lol.. thank you...OK I will tell you how it is done. First I have a black cloth..Then I put a piece of glass on risers on top of that. Finally, I tweek it with different tools in Topaz adjust and lens effects. Then I add the texture with Topaz texture effects...Good luck

I LOVE this....cyber six Mary E. You have a way a choosing the perfect photo for your composition editing...or is it the other way around? Either way..I love the rich browns in this. And your reflections make them appear to be canning jars with rings. Amazing use of simple subjects is your trademark. Very artistic and very eye appealing! A framer!!
