 After I enjoyed my St. Pauli's girl, I stripped the bottle clean of all markings and used it for my subject. Set up tripod facing down. Once I finished setting up my tripod (and another St Pauli's). I set up some cardboard to spin the bottle on. After much practice and another St Pauli I had my spin technique down. I set my camera to a relatively (for this challenge) quick shutter speed and got the lighting just right. I celebrated with a St Pauli and then took my picture. After all was said and done I sat down with a new bottle and edited it.

I dont think the exposure has enough impact. Perhaps a longer exposure would have helped. Also some hands or other indication that people are playing.

The image has strips across it. I am not sure if that is from the motion, but it is over the entire image. It wrecks the smoothness of the background.

Yes, spin the bottle. However, the picture doesn't do a lot to hold my attention. The grayness is too much, especially when there is just a hint of the green bottle, wish you could see more of the color.

Good capture of long exposure. However, the pic is rather uninteresting.

The lines in the background are very distracting. I'm also not fond of the green bottle on the smoked colored background. The lines also show that the photo isn't straight/level. Good luck in this chalenge. <5>
