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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
