My Zen Garden, with a mirror on the candle stand.
I had to darken the picture a bit to make the red less orange. Cropped a bit off the top too.
This was the only photograph in the lot without the horizontal lines my camera seems to love adding... so the cropping isn't perfect. Apparently it's too dark, but I can see it fine...

I very much enjoy the color choices in this picture. The black background and the mirrors cause an optical illusion such that one gets the impression one is looking at an Escher-like design. The granularity of your camera's image add to the effect such that this really almost has the feel of a painting, or a 3D render with 'dirtied up' texture maps.
Very interesting composition - abstract, and shows creativity. I think the background is a little dark though. I'd like to see more definition on the back edges of the subject.
Composition: Near perfect, but maybe subject is a little small?
Technical: Excellent
Meets challenge: Yes
Overall impression: A really excellent pic. 9
I like the presentation of floating in black space and the solid rock feel of the platform. Lots of dark shadows that are eating up edge bits. That may bother some but not me. The mysterious feel is way kool. The zap of red zings up the photo nicely. The mirrors are a great idea. Interesting portrayal of subject.
It is a touch dark and grainy, but very interesting. It is a picture that makes you want to keep looking at it to make sure you haven't missed a detail.
It's too dark for me to tell a whole lot about it. I know what you are doing but I just can't quite see it. I do like how the green table fades into the black background. Awesome photo, just personally would like it a little lighter.
This is an interesting image. I like your use of mirrors to achieve this image. I may have tried to make it more clear, or chose a different type of lighting to get a different affect. Nice image.
The background makes it a bit hard to see what is going on. Too bad you have a hot pixel and are not alowed to edit it because of the rules. It is a bit distracting, but I will not hold your camera against you. jgillard6
