I used 12 inch mirrors to create multiple reflections of the bottle. Really had to struggle with the lighting and extraneous reflections. The original photo was cropped and the brightness levels were enhanced. I did experiment with different exposures and shutter speeds, best shots were from auto settings.

at first I thought this was a line of bottles and I was going to suggest that you space them evening and all at the same tilt, but now I see its a mirror, and just one bottle! ;) I like the image, but its really too small to tell about the picture. Colour seems great, but some strange jaggies from jpeg compression. Dsidwell has a great forum post on how to size pictures for submissions that you might find helpful! cheers!

This is a great photo and could have been a contender if it wasn`t for the tiny size.
But i`ll still give you a 9.

I wish this were bigger, it would have more impact. Nice job.

Too small. Pixels, GIV PLS.

This looks like a pretty nice shot, but at such a small file size, I can't really tell... Good colors and reflections. But when you resize, set the longest edge to 640 pixels.

Picture size is too small to make a accurate criticism. This is a cool idea with the mirror reflections going on and on and upside down and different parts seen . From the size it is at cannot judge on the focus very well.

seems interesting, too small to really tell. :(

Could've been good were it bigger than a postage stamp. I don't like the seam in the mirror. Even at this small size it is very very obvious

Intriguing... I'm not really sure what I'm seeing. Is this done with multiple mirrors?

Nice idea but unfortunately too small to see properly

Nice shot, but why so small? As a result, there\'s some nasty jagged edges on the curve of the bottle(s) which really detracts from what is otherwise a great shot

Another one of those submissions that are too small for me to really look at and critique. The max allowable size on DPC is 640x640, it usually helps to take advantage of something at least close to it. Having said that, you met the challenge, I love those reflections (I'm a sucker for reflections :) and I'd be really interested in seeing a bigger version of this to take in all the details.
