Don't crush me!

For "Macro Mondays" them of "Redux 2020"

 

'Glass' & 'Wabi Sabi'

 

Just had to be photographing glass bottles - again!

Three bottles of very different sizes laid on an illuminated panel and lit with a single desk lamp. The colour was introduced by light reflected from a gift bag.

The rim of the small bottle is 8mm across - yes, its small!

 

The depth of field is pretty shallow with the lens 'wide open' but I seem to have all three glass rims in focus. They should be because I lined them up with a straight edge. This is where the 'Wabi Sabi' comes in - they don't look lined up! The smaller the bottle the closer it is to the illuminated panel.

 

As usual, I didn't start out with this particular arrangement in mind - things just evolved.
