Gosh this is so good. At first I thought you must have taken a picture of a poster. Good luck. This has to be up there.

Great shot. It is a shame about the graffiti on the wall right next to her reflection's head. It would have been ok on the other side. Still worthy of 8 IMo.

I like the composition, but I think the tones make it look a bit washed out. Would like to see it in black and white with more contrast.

Very Good. Reminds me of America's Next Top Model. Did you see that episode? 8

Oh and another thing I learnt from this challenge is that three smaller passes with the smart sharp filter in CS2 is better than one big one.

Congrats IreneM. As I more or less said before, the way you froze the motion of the liquid is excellent, well done.

I've always admired those clear glass pictures with no reflections, but thought it would be too hard to do, so never attempted it until now.

Decided my shower looked like a light tent so tried shooting glass in there - bad idea. Horrible white reflections all over the glass. Then I read hughletheren's excellent "How'd They Do That?" tutorial. //www.dpchallenge.com/how.php?HOW_ID=38 The secret really is to shoot with the light coming from behind the glass. Used exactly the same set-up with one 580EX on each side pointed at the background, and immediately got excellent (for me) results.

Next step is to introduce more movement, like above ribbon winner, IreneM (congrats btw). The beauty of shooting still-life is that you can leave all your equipment in place between shoots.
