This could have been a winning image!
However it is not straight, and if you had lit the bottles from behind they would have had a cool glow.
I still like it though.

I think this would be much better with a better setup/background... Its a cool shot with a somewhat boring setting.

Interesting theme. Kind of takes the landscape to a different mindset. Very nicely done. 8

Margaret - "Ok, this is how we'll do it. I'll go up to the gate and ask to use the pot. While I'm doing that, you sneak around and scale the outer wall, surprising the guards from within, allowing me to take them down."

Agatha - "Scale the... but I'm 85 years old!"

Margaret - "Exactly! They won't know what hit them!"

Agatha - "Also, it's 2008, I don't think there are guards anym..."

Margaret - "Enough talk! Action!" Runs off towards gate.

Agatha - shaking head, "I always wondered what would happen if she went off her medications."

Nice blur on the arrow, really like the concept. The white balance seems a little off, basic curves adjustment layer would help with this.

Few people understand that the contemplations of the turtle are some of the most meaningful and complex in the entire universe.

Fewer still understand that their day is coming.
