This was taken outside, natural light was used only. I adjusted the hue, saturation, and brightness. I also sharpened it up a lot to make it look more abstract. I was intending to draw the viewer's attention more to the shadows cast by this glass piece.

A softer more ambiant light should have been used to show the detail of the bowl without so much flare. If the shaddow and light refraction is the main subject.... perhaps the bowl could have been almost removed from the shot? (ie: shoot over it making sure it had no focus?)
Very nice idea, however I think you do need to have put your glass in better focus. I am also not sure about the background you have used (unless that is what has given the glass the purple fringing, but I doubt it. You probaly could have got a much better effect on a different background.
Great concept, nice design. I love the shadow, but wish the highlights were more distinct, less 'burned out'. The image seems to move, but dang that exposure!
Great idea. Unfortunately the abstract bit detracts from the galss bit (in my ever so humble opinion) and the galss bit is a tad over exposed mid right. Still I really like the image
I really like your use of the shadow in the composition, as well as the sparkles of light on the glass itself. I tend to find the high contrast a bit distracting, however. While it brings out the highlights, you are losing a lot of detail that might add interest to the shot. Creative, though, and quite pretty.
