 I thought these glasses were a good choice for this challenge, and the setup was fairly simple a blue sheet behind the glasses. My first challenge entry. Sharpen, resize for web, and a slight crop is as far as the editing went.

Greetings from the Critique Club

Ok you got delicate without a question and nailed the perspective with a limited dof by focusing only on the front piece of stemware.

I like the composition and the blue seems to add interest here.

The one flaw that my eyes were drawn to instantly was the reflection you have in that first glass its distracting. You might want to watch your light sources to avoid that...it appears to be a sliding glass door in the reflection.

Welcome to the insane asylum! Very nice shot. Let's see how badly you can beat up on Paul with the "lowly" 828. :)

Unique idea. Different from all the other flowers. :) Love the focus on the first crystal, as the others blur in the background. Very nice. :)
