August 23 2004:
Evening Tipple

If I run out of ideas for a PaD, well, there’s always me. But the wine bottle looked a little lonely, so I thought that could be in the picture too. And since I was behind on the washing up….

And thanks for the comments yesterday on my ‘Veteran Campaigner’ photo. One or two asked to see a monochrome version, and I’ve included this in my gallery of showing many others at Speakers Corner yesterday

Nicely drunk .. er .. I mean done, Ray. Seriously, I like the cropping and the use of the desaturation ... hic (sorry, I couldn't resist).

It's a small bottle so it's perfectly o.k. The washing up can wait...

Man.. i was just thinking tonight i wanted to stop and get wine.. but did i? NOOOOOOOOOO...
Nice and dark, with just enough light to make it moody.

I think this is a really good shot! (No pun intended, of course). Greate framing, good lighting, etc. I like how the bottle is perfectly perpendicular to the frame. I also like the selective use of ocolor.
