Comment by HBunch:
The clarity of this is very nice. Great focus. Lighting is perfect. Originality and creativity both apply nicely here. I like the placement within the frame. I notice a few reflections in the very bottom of the glass, but they aren't distracting at all. Actually, they add a bit of color to the photo. Also, the light glare on the top of the glass is used very nicely in this photo. Great job and good luck in the challenge.

This is just beautiful, and also clever. I don't like the way the rest of the glass is cut off. I think if you're not wanting the stem etc in your frame maybe it would work better with a regular tall thin tumbler so there would be no need to crop some out?

Excellent idea and very attractive contrast and colors. I'm not to fond of the harsh cut-off at the bottom though.

My only complaint here is that the white background is a bit patchy. Otherwise very well done.

Exquisite!!!The refraction complimented by the roots and clear water make this a 10 on my scale
