 Wow this feels a bit nerve-wracking I haven't posted an image here for a while and I forgot how much I suck!
I love colored glass :)
Yesterday we had a family lunch at my place and someone brought some Appletise drink which came in a lovely green bottle .
This was the best of my shots this morning with my macro lens. I got quite frustrated trying to deal with the blown highlights any suggestions gratefully accepted ;)
Here's the original

I actually like the blown highlights in this case, it makes a nice neutral backdrop for the rich green bottle!

I don't think it sucks at all lol. I love the saturation you gave the photo. This is the kind of picture that would be fun to see with some words on it.

What a lovely jewel tone. Reminds me of a child's sticky sweet treat.

I love the subtle texture of the glass. Nice curve and verdant color~~

Ha Ha! My first impression was "green pumpkin pie?" This is a good pattern find.
For the highlights problem, you could try wrapping a full sheet of poster board into a tube, then set the bottle in that to shoot. That may even out the light some.
Another suggestion would be to put it where there is a dark BG and shoot it with light coming through the glass from the opposite side, which would be lower left in this case.

I LOVE green (have you ever seen the movie Great Expectations with Gwyneth Paltrow? FULL of green - YUM!)

This reminds me of that movie.
