Bottle Sill Life by farmreporter

Bottle Sill Life

I went out searching for farm machinery for my latest get pushed challenge and ended up at the Glengarry Pioneer Museum.
I did get pictures of antique machinery, but it was the bottles glowing on the window sill that really caught my eye.
A nod of acknowledgement to Ian Metcalfe @ianmetcalfe who posted a picture of his window sill - and suggested that we have started a whole new genre - sill life!
A new theme for the next competition perhaps?
That is really beautiful! Love the light and colors!

I like it too - it has a very old feel, but a vibrancy as well.

This is so pretty! Love the colored reflections on the sill and the textures of the old window... much better than machinery for me!!! fav

@lyndamcg This is SOOC with just a bit of cropping. Was quite pleased with the result but then, the bottles were sitting there just waiting for their picture to be taken!

Beautifully captured. The colours are lovely. Bottles were definitely much more interesting in the olden days.:)

Beautiful how the light shines through

Super sill life! Lovely colours but the worn paintwork really appeals to me

Ditto, ditto, ditto, and ditto. The blue of the barn in the background is stunning. You certainly "sooc" it to us well! (& I love sooc!)

@frappa77 Good idea! I think there is too much colour for the artist challenge but will enter it anyway. I also have a whole bunch of bottles and jars that I plan on putting together to enter as well.

I like this, what a lovely collection of bottles, makes me wonder what was in them originally. I like all the different colours too. The light on them is really nice and the whole scene makes a perfect picture.

Amongst your thumbnails, my eye was drawn to this shot - colour always 'does it' for me. I like the processing too.

Have just seen your comment about sooc - even more amazing!!!

Wouldn't you just love to have those bottles at home for flower pictures? Extraordinary control of colour and light here.

Very nice. I think you're succeeding at 'pushing the limits'.
