These bottles have all been collected from op shops. The seal was a souvenir from a trip to Underwater World in Queensland.
Although there is a window behind them the view through it is intrusive so I draped some packaging material over it. The shadows of trees are still discernible, but I think they contribute some thing.

Good idea to backlight the glass, but try using a shallower depth of field and/or more subject to background distance to throw the background a bit out of focus.

I think this a really pretty and romantic still life. I'm not quite convinced by the backcloth, and would probably prefer something a little softer. nonetheless, a very pleasing photo.

Very nice. I wish the background was flat white instead of the texture it has.

Nice glass shot, a lot of pics seem to be having trouble with glass shots in this challenge.
