The colors and composition are beautiful, but i think that is too abstract for this challenge, because i can figure out any spam idea on the pic... I know what you intended, but not being able to read any phrases on any part of the glass is bad for my taste.

I like the cool tones and the abstract use of spam. The different blurred out lines of text really make for an interesting pattern. I just think for a stronger composition that the whole glass would be visible or maybe even turn this picture upside down.

I see s slight spammy-pink color in the reflection, but that's about it.

A sharp image well exposed. Colours work for me. The glass being slightly of to the right Makes the pic a bit unbalanced for me. The biggest thing I would like to have seen different here is the idea which I assume you tried to create here, with letters in the background, distorted and obscured by the curve of the glass, to be sharp as well. At the moment it's to distant and is difficult to bring spam as the main theme into the picture

This desperately needs SOME of the text in focus. Even with the title, it is difficult to see how this ties into the challenge. Nice colors, though.

Nice colors, and focus, but this isn't shouting "spam". 5

Abstract spam? Is that a new art form? ;) JK

I really like the lighting and reflections here.

Ah yes, this cliche. Just missing the water drop and the sunset. ;-)

Seriously, though, it would be nice if at least one of the lines of text was actually legible.

I'm assuming the lines in the bg are from your computer or a print out. I do the like the lighting, color, and composition.

Hmmmmm, not sure I see the Spam connection. Unless you mean the white lines in the background which I suppose could be spam in your email? Too blurry to tell. If that is what it is, you should have made the spam email stand out more so we can see it.

Very subtle, I think you make fall foul of the 2 second voter though.

Focus looks soft, I would like to see the text in the glass in focus.
