Get Pushed Challenge #586
My partner wrote "for your challenge, how about trying some sort of home-made filter."
I wanted to photograph these perfume bottle a friend of mine gave me. I wanted it to be a bit elegant since the bottles were so delicate. I used a variety of "filters" and decided I like this one the best. I used some cellophane easter grass.

The bottles are so very lovely and your filter worked well. I like the spots of bokeh too.

It makes a beautiful still life. I love your effect.

Cool effect you've made here. You've definitely met the challenge.

@northy I apologize. I forgot to tag you right off. I thank you for the challenge. I decided against the vaseline. I had tried it in the past and may well again use it.

How did I miss this gorgeous, cleverly composed image? Just seen it in the curated page.

[Kathy]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Don't know. I guess being home and off makes it hard. I'm always surprised to find I've missed one too.

[Kathy A]

How did I miss this? Those perfume bottles are gorgeous!

@kjarn Thank you Kathy. The bottles belonged to a friend of mine's mother who died at the beginning of Covid lockdown. When my friend was cleaning out her house, she wanted me to have them so I could use them perhaps in my photography. I can't believe it's taken me over a year to pull them out and use them.
