 This was a challenge where everything went wrong. Grapes don't float and didn't turn up looking very green. The blue looked purple and the duck kept sinking! Lots of light sources, natural and artifical. Had difficulty getting a clear shot because the duck kept moving around.
Still if this manages to get a few votes I'll be swinging on the chandeliers!

well - what seems like every second shot in this challenge is based around a similar theme... but your title is by far the best of those. 7 on that basis alone.

A bit fuzzy, a bit off-kilter, flat color on the grapes, and I would rather have seen a green umbrella. But - the swirl of the fabric, which catches the lighting in a wonderful shimmery way and the swirls of the liquid in the glass, which you caught well are terrific. However, what really won me to this picture is that one drop of water just in front of the duck. I keep reaching out to wipe it up, before catching myself. That is a serindipitous capture on your side.

Nice idea
Looks like you added noise to blend with the background.. 6

I like the blue gauze material as the background and your setup in general but the quality of the picture is pretty bad - way too noisy.

If it wasn't grainy, this would be an excellent shot, I love the composition!
