I was just telling someone I had to buy some marbles to have around for photo shoots...this looks like an interesting setup to try with different colors or directions of light...

I love how the marbles are going up into an abyss. Reminds me of standing in line at Walt Disney World for Space Mountain, or something.

Nice idea. Round "lines" maybe a touch brighter light that would bring out the luminance of the glass

Interesting for sure. Maybe stronger light would make it better?

I would like this more if I didn't see all the scratches on the marbles and the glass looks scuffed. I'm not sure if this is leading line because my eyes are being lead to a black circle and not really a subject.
