I love the tones in this one. This is a great example of the type of shots that should win- nicely composed but not overly orchestrated shots. It does not look contrived. I really can't say enough about this; except, I am glad you won. Nice job.

A fine job on the post-processing in a keep it simple image.
The dof is awesome here to enhance the focal point.

Congratulations on your ribbon.
It's interesting that the Blue ribbon winner is a picture of glassware. There's a poster at the schools I teach at which just shows glassware with a blue background, so it's one that I thought of doing. I had access to test tubes and stuff .... but getting effective lighting was the problem (and laziness).

I really like the way the lighting turned out in this shot, creates a nice mood for the shot (for me anyways). Nicely done

Nice use of DOF. I like the monochromatic scheme. Good composition - a little more empty space on top than I would have used... maybe not. Very good overall!

My favorite in the challenge - I like the shallow depth of field and duotone processing. It's also nice to see real lab glassware in this challenge... Great photo - 8

I love the light on the glass beaker. The focus is very good. But the bright band of light on the right over powers the photo.Message edited by author 2006-09-20 01:01:29.

But nothing is perfect and the white stuff on the right hand side simply drags this image down.
