Beautifully set off against that black background. Detailed yet subtle focus and nice composition. Quite a nice photo.

Great photo. I actually prefer this one to your free study (which did quite well) because I love the depth here. Great colors as well.

Beautiful image. Wonderful perspective down on the ice. Great tones. Excellent.

Illusion. Hmm..

Comment:
I'd guess makeup brush as an instrument of illusion, but maybe the illusion is that we're meant to assume it's a makeup brush when it's really a cross-section of an eyebrow on the end of a rolled dinner napkin. Nah, I'm going makeup brush.

Possibly a headphone of sorts? Super clean and crisp. Professional product shot. Cool.

Well, I'm guessing a three-hooped mini-beater in some oil and water. I really like the nice range of silver tones. Cool shot.

Lines, colours

Comment:
I'm guessing a glass instrument of sorts, possibly a glass stir rod such as the ones that come in margarita/drink sets, held over a rainbowish thingamajig. Nice pastel colors, and interesting how the lines are perfectly parallel within the glass while running at an angle to it physically.

Staring Into the Water, Lost in Thought

Comment:
It's a beautiful image that requires a bit of time to soak up the serenity, the graceful movement, the near symmetrical mirror of tones. Maybe too much to hope for in a challenge of 426 entries. I guess that might explain a bunch of the fives, but how this registered 19 sub-four votes is beyond me. Regardless, save this good stuff for the next DPL. ; )

Ah, a well worn corkscrew. Really interesting how it fades in and out of the focal plane. Cool effect.
