I took this one when I was in Germany last month, and though it's fairly abstract I'm not going to be offering any prizes for guessing what it is.

bottles, aren't they? nice reflections

Uhmmm great reflection game :) I suppose they are bottles (or not?).

comment by djn1 at 09:41 PM (GMT) on 4 November, 2007

Yes, they're empty wine bottles, and the reflections are of the metal racking in which they're stacked.

Shoelaces. Wait, no. Pancakes.

Wonderful shot. I love the patterns and colors.

Yes it was dead easy- bottles ....But in fact the image is worthy of being patterns on the wings of an exotic tropical butterfly. Damn it was taken in Germany so that could never have been right ... But heck ... Yeh let's go for the wing patterns much more fun. richard;-)

I think too abstract - I thought perhaps polished pipes of an organ at first.

ahh now this is great, what I like here are the negative spaces, and the fact that the colouration gives nothing away as to the subject, just the shapes make it obvious that they are of course bavarian trumpets!!! ;-)

Looks like clear glass bottles reflecting some sort out building

I would be great if tomorrow's post showed us what it was that was reflecting in the "glass".

Pure magic. I love this.

Cool shot! They look like silver bottles :) Nice lines and tone.

just wonderful!

comment by Jennifer at 08:50 AM (GMT) on 5 November, 2007

Fun - I like! Could you make it into a 'planet' ? - might look rather groovy.

comment by jack borland at 02:25 PM (GMT) on 5 November, 2007

beer bottles

comment by Josef Renklint at 07:25 PM (GMT) on 5 November, 2007

Fairly abstract? That's an understatement :)

Nice shot nonetheless.

Thanks all :-)

Looks almost like a cathedral.
