A wine glass filled with water dyed with red and yellow food coloring sitting on a 12" sq. piece of art paper sitting atop a piece of bent upwards black poster board. Lit with two candles diffused with orange paper. Cropped, unsharpened, despeckled, and saved for web, all in PSE2. Pretty much "out of camera".

on my monitor, this looks distinctly red. i am getting "?red?" comments on mine as well so i don't want to be too critical on this point. nice composition, great lighting.
It looks red to me... i had a look at this shot on my LCD monitor at home and wondered if there was a problem with it. So giving you the benefit of a doubt, i'm at work using a normal monitor and it still looks red.. :( so to me this doesn't fit the challenge at all. But overall, good composition. Focus is good but the lighting is a bit dark but maybe that's the effect you wanted? Good effort on your part nevertheless. In all fairness i'm affraid i'll have to give you a 3 on this.. Sorry
Very, very red. I'm assuming you noticed this because you included "love" in your title and I have never seen that used in conjunction with orange before. I like the use of the black on red though and the combination works well. However the reflection on the glass is distracting. Score: 4
This looks really red to me, but I'll give ya the benefit of the doubt on the color and call it orange. I do like it. I wish the front of the glass was more clear. It looks like it's frosted or smudged or something. I like the way the mat goes up in the back.
