trying to get this bottle to balance was a nightmare!!! still i hope it is worth it.
My feeling is that i may get a few DNMC comments, As the challenge stated "What do you believe in?" i hope this will not be the case. i think i may get a 5.5xxx score
Nothing cleaver with edits, All in CS3
Clone out the thread holding the bottle top, curves, levels, brightness, slight colour redress and then a resize, sharpen, noise reduced.

Most of your commenters saw the humor in it, and the link to the extended challenge description. But I'm betting a whole lot of folks never read past the title of a challenge so you always take that risk if you count on them to do so. Nicely lit and well executed, particularly the angle of the bottle!
I have just read the comments for this photo "post vote" and I have to say that I completely disagree with those who question the validity of the shot to the challenge.
Your starting point was what you believe in - not go out and take pictures of churches.
Your shot was well executed and I for one enjoyed the wit involved! well done.
don't think there is anything holy about this spirit, it has a spirit of its own. would have chosen a different background with so much black on the bottle. omo. good luck
Interesting...You illustrated a Bible verse. "Don't get drunk with wine (or whiskey, but be filled with the (Holy) Spirit." Great photo of the first part of the verse... :)
