A "found" still life in the city.

- Or perhaps the title can be "Sharing a drink called loneliness is better than drinking alone."

Ya might want to move them away from the window before you shoot that next photo. :)

Shampoo sounds like an unfortunate name for a hair product.
You're a ghost driving a meat-coated skeleton made from stardust, riding a rock, hurtling through space. Fear Nothing!

I think a different angle would have benefited. Maybe looking down the line of bottles with a small DOF?

Thanks for the input. A different view was not possible, and shooting with the zoom at 25mm, a shallow DOF was not too likely.

That being said, I see what you mean about the subject disappearing into the background. I made an effort to separate them here. Bumped the saturation on the lables, and then a fair amount of desaturation (up to 50% in some areas), coupled with some blur on the window, and some more blur on the reflection.

Now, as a "found" urban still life, any better?

The whole window full of bottles doesn't work for me, but I think there's an interesting shot to be made from one of the corners of that window. Crop attached.
