Hi Susan - I hope that you went and bought this anyway!
What can I say? I like it, but I love shiny things so that was a given. What else can I say?
Technicals
I think that this shot concept really demands razor sharpness and good long DOF and you have delivered both here. The lighting is great with plenty of sparkle.
Artistically
I'm asking myself why this didn't break 6 at least. Hmmm. My best guess is that there is not enough contrast between the T-bar shape at the front and the background glass - more light in one or dark in the other might have helped (in PP I guess?) If I stare long enough, the brown 'lozenge' on the lower right also doesn't seem to quite fit?
Overall, I like it, you like it. Mainly I think that it might be a bit too 'busy' for the voters (checking out the very simplistic concepts in the top ten) but that is their choice and their loss.
Cheers,
