I was un aware of this Challenge as I was on holiday, I know that it is used to hold a liquid, but as it was disguarded on the beach and I liked it I took the picture.
Hope the voters dont make it too hard for me.

Very lovely story with the fab pic. I would have liked the bottle to a little more obvious though I can understand the kind of mood you're trying to give out.

Aren't bottles for containing liquid?

nice colors, but looks contrived.

Unfortunately the clump of dirt or grass(?) is covering up most of the bottle, taking away much of the focus on the main subject. I really like the the constrast between the blue-black sky and the reddish-brown ground.

A bit dark...but still a nice shot.

A little too dark. Love the storm clouds and the colors.

Somehow the bottle looks oddly out of proportion with the image, but the colors are good - like the darkness of it.

The challenge states that the glass cannot be a vehicle for liquid.

A dynamic shot. Although its a little hard to find the subject.

i feel like you could have brightened wthis with post processing, its a great shot
play around with it, it could be even cooler...

Sorry but too dark for my taste, had it not been for the title I would not have seen it was a bottle there, at first I thought "what the heck does this image have to do with glass" and then I saw the title. Also, I did vote this image as not meeting the challenge, did you not read the description about the glass item not being intended to hold liquid for this challenge? Shame really for I think I might have liked this image if all of it were brigher with a dramatic sky and the red hued sand. As it is though, being too dark and not meeting the challenge, I gave out the dreaded 1 vote. :(

Great contrast between the warm and and cold sky. I think you did a great job, well done. The off-center composition, color, and focus are all excellent.

Great sky and ground color. Wouldn't mind if more of the bottle were in focus. Kind of iffy using a bottle?

Interesting would be better if the clouds were in focus as well. or at least more focused. the colors are great.

Isn't this bottle made to hold a liquid??? The image is nice, anyway.

I would have brightened it a bit.

Another unique take on the challenge, and I really like the clouds. Funny title. I would have tried to shoot from a different angle or removed the stuff in front of the bottle.

this is amazing

I'd have liked to see this a little brighter. It's a good graphic with contrast between the sand and the sky. Unfortunately, a bottle is meant to hold liquid, so I can't score this very high.

Can't hold liquid. Nice colors though.
