Photographer's Note
I've stumbled upon this picture just recently, (completely forgot about it) and thought it would be a good idea to post it.
This picture was taken in the Kimmel Center in Philadelphia. The Kimmel center is a concert hall which hosts most of the bigger concerts in the Philadelphia area. Its architecture is rather interesting, I will post another photo later to show you, or you can visit www.kimmelcenter.org for more info. It serves as home to The Philadelphia Orchestra and The Opera Company of Philadelphia among others.
Well, I was there for a concert, when I saw this arrangement of champagne and water bottles in sort of a bar area ...
The title suggests that the bottles are lined up like the French army, no offense intended to the French, but I chose French because of the "real" champagne, which everybody knows comes only from France, and Evian water which is also French (Eau Minerale Naturelle) ;)
I didn't do much to the picture, just replaced a lightbulb hehe :), I mean, the second light from the left was missing, so I cloned the one next to it ...
Then I played a little with the brightness and levels.
I really hope you like it at least as much as I do.

Gabriel,
Impressive capture, the thumbnail looked like a blurred image for me. This one is great, very graphical. Good POV and nice perspective. Also nice contrast of colors here. Well seen and captured.
Cheers, Siva

Great picture.
In the small preview I thought it is any "cutted" picture and multiplied andy part.
Surprising effect to see then the full picture.

Sal G,
Ha ha, ce chestie, cand am vazut poza thumbnail am crezut ca este facuta noaptea pe o sosea ... efectul farurilor si stopurilor la expuneri lungi.
Excelenta compozitie si POV.
O zi buna,
Filip.

Hi :))
When I saw the thumbnail I started thinking what kind of lighted building is it... :)))
I have to go to a doctor to check my eyes... :D
Very nice idea and such a photo :)

Olaf

Credeam ca e ceva de genul "Nud coborand scara" de DUchamps, daca stii lucrarea.
Ingenios, bravo!
