Bottle's army ready for battle in the sunset sunshine. Agfa APX 400 film, Helios-44 M5 lens, Zenit-130 camera.
It's Sunday I'm sore and bored. Last Friday I moved, unpacked yesterday and today I recovered while sitting at a laptop.
This picture is something I have been thinking about for several months and wanted to reshoot before I tried it out. Today I figured it wouldn't be until the end of the year before I had a studio set up, (something I never had). These shots were done in a small narrow hallway between pocket doors. I kept tripping over light stands while constantly retaping cardboard boxes and paper to block and guide the light. I'd like to say a lot of love went into the shots, but I just remember using a lot of colorful language and being frustrated.
This image was made from 2 separate photo's
from the top -for macro mondays
These bottles were burst-off from the blowpipe and received no additional finishing which resulted in the very crude and sharp finish visible in the image. This method of "finishing" a bottle was common with cheap, mouth-blown, utilitarian bottles made in England in the late 1800s

Ever since road tripping in Australia I had a fascination for Boab / Baobab trees and any similar species.
Brachychiton rupestris, commonly known as the narrow-leaved bottle tree or Queensland bottle tree, is a tree in the family Malvaceae native to Queensland, Australia. Discovered and described by Sir Thomas Mitchell and John Lindley in 1848, it gained its name from its bulbous trunk, which can be up to 3.5 metres diameter at breast height. Reaching 10–25 metres high, the Queensland bottle tree is deciduous, losing its leaves between September and December. The leaves are simple or divided, with one or more narrow leaf blades up to 11 centimetres long and 2 centimetres wide. Cream flowers appear from September to November, and are followed by woody boat-shaped follicles that ripen from November to May.
Nikon D3400, Nikkor AF-P 18 to 55mm at 32mm with Promaster 12 mm extension tube. f 5, ISO400, 1/250 under (1) 5000k LED lamp. Subject width 2.125 inches.
This bottle must be about 100 years old. We found it 40 years ago when we were digging up the garden at our first house and have treasured it ever since. I have taken loads of shots of it over the last couple of days and love it even more as the macro lens shows up all the imperfections of the glass as well as the ingrained dirt.
The soft drinks company was begun in 1884 by Elizabeth Lyle in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, according to some info from her 3x great grandson I found online. "Tunbridge Wells" is also embossed along the base of the bottle.
I have been playing around with and older camera for macro.
Nikon D7100, pop-up flash through a Gary Fond diffuser, 50mm lens + 36mm extension tube + raynox 250. 1/250 second, F:13, ISO 100.
.....have recently seen how shooting at 1/180 seconds gives a more even diffusion.
The bottlebrush plant, Callistemon citrinus, bears dramatic crimson-red flower spikes, in contrast with dark green, aromatic foliage, in spring and summer. New foliage has a pink-red flush, but darkens with age. Native to Australia, Callistemon citrinus thrives in warm, sheltered conditions, and is susceptible to frost damage.
I'm sure I didn't look at all silly squatting in my living room in the dark in the middle of the night illuminating an empty bottle with the rear light from my bicycle.
I would love to spend the night in one of these. There are a few scattered in California ghost towns.
This public artwork by Michael Condron is inspired by the "Newfoundland Bottle Knot" in celebration of Poole's historic maritime trade.
Curved stainless steel strips arch out of the ground to form the coils of a knotted rope. Metal rope patterns continue across the floor, linking the sculpture arches and completing the knot.
We have had soooo much rain here! I'm getting soooo sick of it!! =)
Anyway, I found out that there is something wrong with our local telephone carrier, so I'm thinking that's probably why I've been having trouble with Flickr. Of course, they won't come right out and admit what the problems are, just that there are some... so, I'm just guessing. =)
This is a bottle I have in my kitchen. I like odd / different looking bottles and this was one that I had to have. I filled it with barley awhile back... it has been so long ago, I don't even remember when I did it. I wouldn't recommend eating it. =) Anyway, I just liked how abstract this was. Not to mention, it's something different than flowers and macro's. =)
I don't know when things will be working right again with my internet / Flickr, but I'll try to keep checking back and see if I'm able to see anything. =)
Take care!! And thanks for all the comments!! =)

"Naturaleza Embotellada"
Esta mañana mientras paseaba imagine cientos de botellas, de tarros de cristal, arrastrados por el viento, que eran atrapados por los árboles....
Iban buscando un hogar donde los sueños puedan refugiarse, "embotellados", y donde en un futuro puedan ser "rescatados" y
polinizados .....
"Bottled Nature"
This morning while walking I imagined hundreds of bottles, of glass jars, dragged by the wind, that were caught by the trees ....
They were looking for a home where dreams can take refuge, "bottled", and where in the future they can be "rescued" and
pollinated .....
"Nature en bouteille"
Ce matin, en me promenant, j'ai imaginé des centaines de bouteilles, de bocaux en verre, entraînés par le vent, happés par les arbres ...
Ils cherchaient une maison où les rêves peuvent se réfugier, être «mis en bouteille», et où ils pourraient être «sauvés» à l’avenir.
pollinisé .....
"Natureza engarrafada"
Hoje de manhã, enquanto caminhava, imaginei centenas de garrafas, frascos de vidro, arrastados pelo vento, capturados pelas árvores ...
Eles estavam procurando uma casa onde os sonhos pudessem se refugiar, "engarrafados", e onde, no futuro, eles pudessem ser "resgatados" e
polinizados .....
