Its actually Mardi-Gras style beads wrapped around the stem of a margarita glass... The camera is inside looking down the stem. Lighting is a florescent desk lamp. Minor PP..resize, crop, brightness, contrast, USM and SFW.

Love the colors! The depth is interesting because it creates a collision of colors. Probably just needs a bit of focus on the center to really bring it together. Great entry.
The score on this sucks, the picture does not. I really find it quite interesting and like your approach of shooting from inside the glass. Great color!
Mardi-gras beads, or some other kind of beads? It's a good idea, and the colours are quite dramatic. As an composition though, it is difficult to tell where the point of interest is - it's like there's colour all over, but not anything in particular to attract long-time attention or keep the viewer looking. Your focus seems to be right at the left hand side of the image, the darkest section of the whole picture. It might have been better to focus on a brighter, more attractive place, such as the green bead at the right towards the bottom. ~5
