A wine glass, 2 oversize dice, and some 7-up for bubbles. :) I really wish the glare from the light wasn't on the left side of the glass, but not being able to spot edit I had no choice but to leave it in.

My 10 for the challenge. I like the tones, and I like the whimsey of the shot. The glare is a bit harsh on the glass, but the visual impact overrides that for me. 10

I'm always partial to glass photos ;)
This works well in bw... the bubbles add much to this. The reflection detracts a bit however...

Cool wine glass shot, with a twist.

The only thing I can say about this is the reflection on the glass is a distraction from an otherwise great image. This is a great creative twist from the many still lifes which include a glass. The sparkling water / bubbles is a great touch that sets this apart.

I like this shot, could easily be in a commercial, at least it is up in that quality. Wonder what it would look like in colour, with an extremely blue backround behind it.

Very interesting, and a nice capture. The only flaw is the glare in the glass, which, I know, is impossible to manage with any decency with frontal lighting.

Remarkable clarity, detail, and focus.

hmm...hmmm...thinking outloud! TOL? anyway...this would be absolutely floawless to me and meets the challenge for me. I have one flaw and it is bugging me...the glare on the front of the glass just over the di on the left. 8

Nice. I like the perspective and symmetry of the crop. Lots of varying shadesandthe dice are a nice distictive touch of white with the added texture of the bubble. The reflection above the 6 dice is distracting though. Well executed shot...

I like the reflection of the dice

Very neat idea. Love the bubbles in the water/soda. Great subject for a B&W challenge. Composition seems to be lacking a little, being a straight on shot, but overall a very nice shot.

very creative

Certainly an interesting if somewhat bizaare idea. I like the detail of the bubbles and the high contrast on the die. Background is a little too grey - a separate light for the background might help.
