    Re: The Bottle

    Very unique =) I like the colors but I would try and brighten it just a smidge if you have photoshop or something...

    All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.

    Here it is in b&w.
    IMO it looses a lot, I think what I liked was the pink on pink.
    What do you think?

    Hi Veggie,

    Welcome to the critique forum. This is an interesting image with a creative angle. I think it only needs some fine tuning. Make some adjustments to your brightness and contrast levels for your color image, with all those bright colors this could really POP more than it is, be careful not to over do it though. I wouldn't even bother with the black and white conversion on this one since your textures and shapes are less of a focal point than your colors. I have attached an edit I made of your image. The only thing I affected was the brightness and contrast adjustments which should be available to you on any photo editing software in some form or another. A good first submission.

    Regards,
    CLKunst

    Thanks CLKunst! Im wondering now if a combo of what CLKunst did, and what Frog suggested:
    The bottle ring and the t-**** the light pink, and the rest of the picture b&w.
