It is this with just a bit of work in Picasa and Gimp. I am exploring studio work and composition.

Creative work. Keep on.

I like the way you have used the fabric and the contrast between highlights and shadows to sculpt a frame of leading lines around the glass.
Good work keep it up

Nicely done.

Thank-you. I hope to continue this exploration. I have been taking a course on Renaissance painting and it has helped me to see new to me possibilities.

Excellent image; i liked how you transferred your subject to a pure abstraction....

In many faiths and paths there is an understanding that there are many ways to understand reality. I am finding that for where I am on my journey the camera is a great tool for exploring new ways of understanding.

Wow! I really like this Brian. Very creative The jar looks a little bit tilted but who cares, you can fix it easily anyway

Very artistic and creative. I'm especially fond of the gold tones set off by the dark background.

It was an easy fix. But it also changed the entire shot. Part of the problem is that the bottle/jar comes from a time before machine perfection. With the lip straight the rest of the odd shapes become apparent. I could be wrong but i would bet that this bottle was hand blown in a three piece mold.

I like the colours too.

Interestingly, although I suggested to fix it, I like the tilted one better Brian. I think being tilted makes the old look of the bottle stronger

thanks, sometimes it all comes together nicely. Then there are days like today where I have a beautiful spiders web and nothing seems to be working for it.
