Last shot of many many. Did not even plan to shoot more, decided to do two more, and this was the last one.
I had a really really hard time getting the glas to be in the center of the photo with all the lines perfecly lined up.
Then the next problem, (that I still did not get perfectly) was to get the white just right, without having the black to light. But unhappy with the reflection on the white side of the glas.
Did many angles, but found this one to be the "nicest?" at least I liked this angle the best. I even shot from straight above.
I hope you like.
No editing done on this, straight like this from the camera. ( this is due to the act the I have not the slightest idea how to do post editing anything.)

I'm not keen about the angle you've chosen to shoot from, it makes for weird reflections in the glass opening. There is also some color in the photo which I'm sure you've heard already so I won't belabor it.
What I've noticed is that the photograper can improve on a trite idea, the picture will get low marks. I like the profile reflection in the top of the glass. That is new! What lets the picture down is the dingy white and not so sharp focus. I think both of these could have been corrected using the basic editing rules.
I've seen this done before and really like the idea. This one seems a little blurring, especially around the top edge of the glass. A little more DOF would have helped...
ok I have seen around a dozen of these shots so far. They all seem too use glasses. I still like it because I still have no clue how its done. But I do feel that using somthing other than the same old glass would earn you your higher and well deserved points
Cool still life, but it's lacking a point of interest for me. Perhaps sparkling water in the glass, or something like that? Technically this is well executed, but I just can't find something to grab my attention.
Good idea and neat execution. Funny how you left the color. Slightly distracting shadow in upper right. Since this image is so perfectly balanced, I wonder how a square format would look.
a good take on an old motive. there are some minor technical problems: reflection on top R of glass, too harsh light in top R of frame, annoying reflections on base of glass and a distraction in top L of glass and the tones seem to be impure, or muted. But I really like the small glass in the reflection in top.
not bad, but it needs something, perhaps more contrast to make it stand out more. looks like theres some color in the glass too, dunno if that was on purpose or not.
The focus on the glass is a little soft and the white looks quite grey. A levels/curves enhancement or more light in the setup would make a significant improvement.
