very good composition (rule of thirds!). nice colors, but maybe IMO colors should be more saturated, colors looks like a little bit washed. But you probably were having problem with undesired reflections. Well done!

Nice setting. The color of the text is not such a good match - it is hard to see - maybe white.

Stunning lighting - I suspect you will rank very highly with this shot. It has an elegance about it, whilst also appealing to science minded people and lovers of geometry. Definitely one of the few shots this week which are worthy of printing.

I was hoping someone would pull one of these off this week - I didn't have a prism and in the end I didn't submit anything either! I thought this was a good idea for the theme anyway, so I'm pleased to see it in here at last!

Colour, movement, crisp image and it has to be glass. Great idea. How did you light it?

Shari,
Thanks for the review of my buzzard shot. I agree that a tighter crop would have been more effective. As it is this rendition only represents about 25% of the original picture and it was starting to break up, so I stopped with what I entered. I surely wish that I could have been closer, but it wasn't my day.
Thanks to you and the rest of the CC for your extra effort and time.
Keep up the good work and have fun!

Gary,
Thanks for the kind words for my poor Boldt Family. The rest of the story is that they had thir neighbors take some snap shots with their old Brownie and then pasted them to the fridge. They had trouble just getting the kids to pose let alone get them to group close enough not to cut off parts of their shinny little heads. You know nobody ever noticed that they stood on their heads for the big family shoot.
If I don't have fun doing this then it just isn't worth it. I am glad so many people enjoyed my humor and I am glad that it did as well as it did. My first tryptic by the way. I am going to try some serious ones one of these days.

Matt,
Thanks for taking the time to give your indepth review of my wild poppies. I knew the cropping was out of the norm when I subbmitted the shot, but I had to give it a try, Nothing ventured, nothing gained, as they say.
Keep up the good work!
Dick
