Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder, and my view is that this object isn't pleasing. I don't think the reflective bits work well in this image.

Good subject and the glass is beautiful, but this image doesn't compare well with other "beautiful" subjects. I like the background, but the top of the piano isn't in focus and there are too many blown out parts from the flash. Keep trying and you will do better in the future.

I think you chose a tough subject to photograph! All the reflections and details make it difficult. It seems out of focus...especially along the top edge. Strictly centered composition, and the little details of the glass all seem to sort of run together in the photo....hard to show this sort of three dimensional item in a flat photo. I'm sure in reality it's a very pretty piece, but I don't think the photo does it justice.

I like the colorful reflections in the glass, however the picture seems a bit dark overall and maybe slightly out of focus. Perhaps some subtle backlighting would have been appropriate.
