the dof is bluring out the broken part im assuming... I would have liked to see that portion of the bottle

The bottle should have been captured from another angle. From this angle it dosent look to "broken".

I think a different angle may have been better. I would have liked the top and bottom a little more clear.

I was wondering if a different depth of field would have changed my vote a bit. The only part that appears in focus is the very tip of the bottle. I could only give a 5.

Intriguing shot - grows on me the more I look at it especially the control of the DOF.

Natures beauty and man-made destruction. Good idea. Also very good colour combination.

Great idea, would prefer to have seen the broken bit of the bottle more in focus.

Oh I do love shallow DOF and low down perspectives and this has both! Nice composition with bottle rim off centre. Some detail in the shells. Interesting.

DOF too shallow, should be sharp at broken end of bottle
