Actually I painted this photo with my SB800. At f/29 and a 30 sec shutter speed, the bottles in this image are really focus, however they appear to be blurry. If you were to zoom in on the original RAW file, you would see a glow or halo around them (very weird). Think I'm going to have to play around with this affect. If anyone can tell me what has caused the "glow", I'd greatly appreciate it. (nothing moved over the 30 seconds, the camera was on a tripod, the SB800 never fired when the mirror was in the process of opening/closing, so the mirror movement should not have caused the blur and the objects in the set were not moving at all)
BTW, thanks for all of the comments

the color metaphor is a good choice for 'odd-ness'. i am just not sure i like the choice of angle of shot and composition
