Blue Phil Morgan crystalline pottery shot against a mirror and water, with a blue background. Shot in low light with two spots.

Applied the following: Rotate/crop. Hue/Saturation and Color Balance to even out and bring out the true colors - the spots I was using put out a yellow cast that needed correcting. Despeckle, Unsharp Mask to help the crystals pop out a bit more.

The vase seems to be out of focus.

I don't know if this is the case, or it's just reflections, but this reminds me of a certain glaze that makes radial patterns of lines, very, very pretty. So my eyes greeted this one well.

hmmm...I like this photo...I'm not sure why...but I like it. The longer I look at it...the more I seem to like it. 8

This is a nice composition, I also like the reflection. But why is it sooo out of focus? :-( The wrapping in the background is a bit distracting, too, and next time, also try to diffuse the light source you use. That will result in smoother lights on the reflecting object.

Doesn't appear to be in focus
