desaturating the yellows caused by of the artificial lighting and leveling the horizon would improve this otherwise fine view.

I thought this was a strong and beautifull image. I do like the empty space as well. But I do think the dead center positioning was indeed a very unfortunate idea. great B&W anyway.

A rare privilege

Thanks to all taking the time to write on my piture. This was a small half bottle of what had been a great drink last year. Found a small glass to give the impression the bottle was larger. I had to mix liquids to imitate the unique amber color of old Yquem. The light was a hand held 100 watt bulb and socket + the cellar's ceiling light. This extraordinary sweet wine, if kept in good condition will still be sublime after 150 years in the dark. I still have a few bottle from the beginning of the century that my grandfather bought at the time. unfortunately I cannot afford leaving the same treasure for my grandchildren to come. The prices for this wine have gone totally crazy.
