 Martini glass with glass marbles surrounded by beads. Make shift lighting - left and right and Canon 420 flash. Yellow backdrop. I believe I set the camera on auto for this one. Took about 50 shots, several I liked, but didn't think they were abstract enough.

HI from teh C Club

you asked for an indepth comment on your shot in this challenge.

It is an excellent macro and great abstract. I don't think anyone could have guessed what this was. You have an excellent bokeh going on here. Would have been nice to see a little more of the glass/stem? as this has gorgeous flowing lines and gives it a focal point.

I can see nothing that would add to this in post processing
