Lovely shots- a green greenbottle for a change - most of the ones I see are more blue :)

thanks for the comments, although it does look like a dent i think it is just light reflection. here is one (not a good pic) from more to the front of him. Cleaning his front end :D

Colours were left as they were and is as i saw it.
