This is a picture of a glass coffee mug. On a black foam board, I put a booklight into it to make it glow, and used a flashlight with red cellophane over it to get the highlights on the handle.
In Photoshop I have cleaned the background a little as it was a bit noisy from the long exposure used, adjusted the colours and sharpened it.

The more I look at this, the more I like it. Just enough information to enable you to make out the shape, and I love that you used the colors to sort of separate elements of the subject. On an emotional level, this shot has moderate impact for me, but I do find it interesting to look at.
i think the color is a little more emphasized than the shape but i like the image. i woud like it better and think it would emphasize the shape more if there were no border.
Very subtle but it works, beautiful use of negative space and lighting the outline of the kettle (?) to emphasize shape. Very creative composition. I like how the border is done, mind sharing your technic? 7
