Looks great on your home page, it was never going to do too well here but I still think its a very good image.

And it is beautiful. No need for fancy reflectors on this one. It's got a close, intimate feel and nice use of cool tones.

I like this! I tend to be somewhat morbid though, so maybe that is just me.

Also, I like the soft lighting reflected on the floor.

I think the wineglass would be more effective as a wine bottle instead perhaps. Just a bit less DOF might have worked too. Maybe a cool filter and a bit of desat in the reds would have been an interesting alternative too.

I wouldn't worry about the score. This kind of topic seldom does well.

That's a freaky looking thing. I would of clipped off the red growth from the bulb, as it's quite distracting, and focused it more on the bulb.

Also a better crop, would of enhanced this, maybe a bit tighter. Still good try.
