My Mum has accidentally broken this glass. I asked her not to throw it out until the challenge submission deadlines. I used a spot light from behind the glass full of red wine. I have a couple of favourite perfumes, Ice and Fire, I tried to achieve a colour which reminds me to them.

congrats on your (obviously) last entry shot with the oly.
i think it was a nice finish *sniff*
but congrats on your new 350d, this is an amazing camera, i have an eye on it too (had the possibility to have a few exercises with the cam), but until i have enough pockets, the good old oly has to do ;P

The sheer force of glass and it reflections. Very nice capture. Bumping up.

Wheres the "ice and fire" ? All i see is broken glass and something red in background.

I think the glass itself is stunning. However I find the red distracting.

I really wanted to hate this shot because there are so many broken glass entries - but it is something a little special - such clarity and depth to the composition.

Nice focus, though not immediately apparent it's broken
