Thank you all for the nice comments. Light was a little stronger on the upper left side and the original idea was something more like this, but I couldn't get it close to it without breaking the editing rules.

I used 1,200 pins and a foam board for this setup, I know some of you are wondering, lol.

That would have been an excellent title!

Fantastic. I think what would have helped this was somethign to bring it all togetther. Maybe a pushpin in the center holding a not that said "Get more Absolut" or soemthing.

highly under appreciated.

There was a book cover I saw -- of course that I cannot find now -- about OCD, and the typography was spelled out using hundreds of needles for each letter. This reminds me of that.

I'm hoping this is scoring well for you. It's brilliant! AND a bunch of work!


I may or may not be voting, so please do not equate my comment with any score.

Some white specks in the middle of the bottle, otherwise very creative and well done. The lighting also seems to be slightly off- lighting the edges more then the bottle... 8

Gosh, it must've taken a while to get all these, lol. I like it, but I'm missing the WOW factor.

I really like this photo. I wish you would have had a different title though. When I first viewed the image, I had the impression that this was a larger aerial shot and the push pins were actually bottles of vodka! You did a good job with the shape of the bottle...but I'm not sure what push pins have to do with vodka? Your design is very uniform and well done though.

Great idea! Very nicely done without the bottle itself - sets itself apart from the other shots. My top 5.
The top left area is a little less dense with pins than other areas of the pic - I guess you must've been running out of patience by then :)

I like this. I also submitted a "bottle-less" picture. What helped me form the shape was printing out a full sized outline. You might have done that, then put the pins on the border and build out from there. Still, this is incredible and looks amazingly organized!
