This image was TERRIBLY underscored. AGH!
AGH!
*pulls out hair*

What's with all those votes of 1?!?!
(p.s. have you seen the photo in 14th place? it's awful and there's a spelling error in the title)

in a way, the fact that a blatantly bad photo can score so well makes it appropriate and fitting that an inarguably good image scores poorly.

eh, there's really no way to excuse the voters' lack of aesthetic appreciation here; it's simply an abomination.

this is the best example of a violet - red - orange - yellow-orange analogous color scheme I have ever seen on DPC, possibly in any photograph ever

Nice elements and pretty good compostion with combination of transparency, translucency, and sphere highlight. Wish for better focus on orange slide, sharpness, and DOF. Good idea, and close to being great but for focus/DOF.

Very well done with killer colors. Bumping up.

Very nicely done. You've got a good DOF and a good focal point. A bit of a glare on the bottom orange detracts a bit. (It's nothing that couldn't be cured in the long run with a little bit of burning, but that is outside the scope of the contest.) I really like the way the difraction of the light occurs as it goes through the glass and liquid. Once again nicely done.

I can almost hear Tevia singing, "Sunrise...Sunset..."

i don't like the purple light, it just doesn't go good with orange imo,
composition is great, especially the orange in the bottom.

Nicely done, love the vivid colors and the touch of purple on the stem is great.

Nice! I love this!

pretty, but i think the actual orange distracts from the glass.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/12/2006 04:24:46 PM
good idea.imo it's too much red in the orange. i would have desat the red tones a little bit or/and displaced them into cyan or green a bit.
nice pic though

i would have preferred the orange at the bottom be removed. its distracting to an already stunning image

Nice job on high lighting the orange, it really jumps out. The reflection in the glass begs attention of my eye and draws my away. 6

Too bad about those blown highlights on top of the orange.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/11/2006 09:02:57 PM
I like the reflection of the whole orange in the side of the glass.

Nice set up, I like the idea, only the glare on the orange at the bottom is overwhelming.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/11/2006 02:37:46 PM
I think the orange at the bottom distracts and It would be better to not have it there...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/11/2006 01:39:26 PM
I'd like this much more if the orange at the bottom were gone. It kind of pulls the rest of the image down. I like the pink of the glass.

I like it, but I think the frame spoils it
