It is not very clear that this is glass, as the focus is more on the stems and water than the glass, but the suggestion of glass is very much there, I really like the picture myself, and thought as it gives the suggestion of glass that it would be appropriate for the challenge..

this dowmplays the glass but is a striking image! The blue blobs in the background detract from the simplicity and power of the stems, but who cares? A GREAT image! - 8 -
one of my favourites of the competition. I like that you left this in it;s naturaly habitat so to speak...it wouldn't have worked with a bland studio backdrop nearly as well. 8
That's a great shot of stems and water. Unfortunately, the only glass in this is 'offscreen,' as it were, holding the water back. Maybe a different crop, to show the shape of the vase, would have gotten a higher mark from me. Nice macro focus, though, and use of the meniscus.
