Creative - nice use of depth of field to give another dimension to the image.

Creative shot. I think it would work just as well without the border.

Fire and Ice

I would like this more if there were perhaps more details of the glass lit up - the stem in particular. Tricky lighting situation. I do like what you've done with the red and the "smoky" effect at the top, however.

I really like the angle and the high-key effect. It might be more "fun" if there was a dramatic splash, but overall a good shot.

Bottled Light

Nice composition and use of non-distracting background. I'd like to see the focus shifted more to the mouth of the bottle, perhaps. I like the little drops that appear to be some sort of condensation on the bottle itself, they add a texture and interest to the shot. So maybe just a bit tighter on the aperature to bring the whole thing into sharp focus? Just a thought...

Nature's Fire (Abstract)

I really like your use of the shadow in the composition, as well as the sparkles of light on the glass itself. I tend to find the high contrast a bit distracting, however. While it brings out the highlights, you are losing a lot of detail that might add interest to the shot. Creative, though, and quite pretty.

Fantastic. Composition is perfect, and I like the creative 2nd level you've taken this to. 10

Very effective and interestng use of lighting. I like the shots in which people used the properties of glass to achieve creative effects. Nice work.

Interesting shot. Very "fine art". I'm not sure that I like the lighter line running across the bottom... Actually, upon closer inspection, I do like the lighter line, it's the line below it of the darker color that I don't care for. I think with the lighter color at the bottom, it's still simple enough that the centering works well and you're effective in the minimalist feel that this has, but the little bit of dark makes it busier, and it doesn't work as well. Of course, that's just me... Maybe I'm reading too much into it and I should just go get another cup of coffee. :) 8

Old Glass Impressionism

Very creative. It really does have the feel of an impressionist painting. My only nit pick would be the white blown out sky at the top, which is minorly distracting due to the amazing beautiful saturated colors in the rest of the image. But overall I like it very much. 8
