I'm with @grizzlysghost on this one - I'd go for a plainer background, with a lot of depth of field, so the focus is on the bottles. Besides that, I like the tones and processing you've used.
I like it! I probably would have tried cropping it make the top of the photo at the top of the bottle necks (but cut off the very tops of the bottles) and bring in the sides close to the bottle edges. I would then play around with sliders in light room until I get the result I like.
There are two easy ways to add pictures on to the discussion.
The first is a full size photo: 1) Click on your photo and bring up its page. 2)Look at the right side of your monitor, and go to the word SHARE (it is below tags) 3) go to the box and copy the long address 4) Come back to the discussion, and then paste. 5) If it is not your photo also tag the person who it belongs to so they know you love it (@name) remember no punctuation on either side of the @and name.
I think I'd go for a plainer background, and also I would not crop off the bottoms of the bottles. I like the tones very much.
To copy your photo here. you go to your page, and where it says "share" at the bottom of the page, you copy the info that's in that little box, and paste all of it in the Write a Reply box.
@5unflow3r I am planning on retiring from the task and my alternate has other commitments, so it will be up for hosting grabs at the end of the week. Hopefully the future fav host will keep it.
Here is a couple of really quick shots to show how staging matters. While my bottles aren't cool and retro, they get your attention because the background is pushed back.
Agreed, the background is a little distracting - either use a simpler background, or decrease the depth of field (or increase the distance between the background and the bottles). The bottles themselves look great - you captured their colours and details well.

The second is to have a smaller file size so to keep the site from getting overwhelmed. http://365project.org/discuss/general/1323/how-to-adding-an-image-in-a-discussion

@beautifulthing he said rubbing. @5unflow3r I think the discussion may have just been hijacked
