Bello Verde Bicchiere = Beautiful Green Glass
Photographed on a table I placed two drinking glasses on gold metalic poster board for a reflection. I used one 120 watt flood light shining on a white curtain behind the glasses, on the wall to soften the back light.

Well, I'm glad I have this image to critique because I liked it a lot.
I love the abstract nature of this shot. You focused on shapes, colors and reflections. I think this is all glass is about so it was definitely a good move. All those are emphasized by the close-up compostion you chose. Very well done.
The exposure is perfect, allowing to show all those great tones and variations of green. Not too much detail using this reduced DOF: this emphasizes the shapes, I like it.
Maybe less graininess would have been better: it doesn't relly fit the theme of glass. I don't know if it came from your processing. Anyway, This is pretty much all I can think of to improve this shot you perfectly executed.
Congratulations, and Good luck for your future entries.
Nice colorful curves, and good color. I feel it would be more effective if less centered and a little more exposure to reduce the grain. Not a bad job though. 5
green!!!!!! (cool shot too, i like the position of the glasses) though I think you could do without the green part of the border.. its a bit thick, the black alone would look nice.
