Wow, I thought of something like this, but I don't have all the right equipment. Well done.

I think the work you did in making this image is not quite reflected (no pun intended) in the result. The result does not quite pop as much as, say, a simple black and white detailed shadow. I think it is the white background that is taking away something from the impact. Perhaps somehow framed in black it might have leaped out at me more.

Congrats on the ribbon. I think this was one of the best in the challenge. I gave it an 8.

Great shot, congratulations.

On a more boring technical note, since you were shooting at a very wide focal length, could you have used a larger aperture and less ISO to get less grain and similar DOF while shooting at the same speed? (tripod would be best if possible) If you like the grain, forget my question, it's not a very important point but got me wandering. Light looks amazing in this shot!

This is lovely - the soft pastelly colours are very special. My only bug would be the colour reflection on the vase itself which keeps pulling my eye right to it. Without that this would have been a 10 point shot definitely.
