Rhapsody in blue glass

And rhapsodic they are...

Beautiful shade of blue! And lovely with the bare tree branches behind them!

Thanks...

Somehow it's peaceful and exhilarating at the same time.

most amazing photos!

Was sitting in a friend's kitchen. He has these by the window. The only effort was to figure out where to focus, and that took about 6 tries.

Cool Blue!!

Who knew cobalt had that many different shades? Love it.

Thanks!

Could be used for the contest. How did you get the color out of the background?
(What I don't know could fill many libraries)>

The wall of the building next door is just a few feet away, and just a pale void when seen out of focus. So no post-processing needed to get the effect.:)

What kind off booze comes in blue bottles?

Nice photo, though. Love the juxtaposition of the peacock feathers.

Don't know what was originally in those bottles. And I was just drinking coffee at the time, honest.

Love the intensity of that blue. Very nice.

very nice :thumbsup:

Love the almost glow they have. The color reminds me of an old ink well bottle I found in mom's yard when I was a kid and the neighbor that was so excited about it. Mind you I was all of 12, he was in his late 70's. He'd been looking for one that wasn't chipped of cracked for decades. (Collected antiques.) I tried to give it to him but he insisted he pay for it. He never did find another in that good of shape so that one stayed in a place of importance instead of getting sold or traded. Now glass that color reminds me of Mr. Bill, in a very good way.
Often we bring our own stories to a beautiful photo now matter the photographers intent. :)
