Was this written on a window or done in Photoshop? I feel this only peripherally meets the challenge, as it really doesn't focus on the effect of a transparent object on light.

Comment by FranziskaLang:
interesting! i had to look at this for a while to figure out what you had done. i think it's simply writing on a sheet of glass, there are some reflections of the flower visible. why the lines? that's the part i don't get. also, keep an eye out for things that just protrude into your frame, they can become a little distracting. there's a white flower poking in from the right, and the tip of a leaf at the bottom, just left of the middle. try and eliminate those. -- gr8photos (5)

I love the colors. It has a really nice summery feel to it. I'm kind of undecided about the horizontal lines though...my first thought would be to either get rid of them entirely or continue them, but I guess I'd have to see it both ways to be sure about that.

Well, as I look at this again, I just love it. It's a beautiful idea. Can you let us know how you did it? The flowers are so vibrant in the background and what a sweet poem. Did you write it? This creativity deserves a 10!!

Very cute! Nice job of composition and positioning your subject. The flowers are slightly overexposed and it tends to fight the softness of the mood just a tad. Nonetheless, I like this photo very much and think it is quite good.

Did you write on a window or is this a transparency page? Very artistically done. Could have been a Valentine's Day card. Suggestion: Use a piece of wide lined paper taped to the window, write your text, then remove the paper, if transparency paper, it's even easier. I don't like the lines.
