Classic question, since I didn't have a chicken or an egg available. First submission, and I am having trouble with my camera, I think daylight would have helped.

An age old question. A nice idea but sadly out of focus and slightly tilted. Perhaps if you straightened the shot a bit, sharpened or got better focus and not black and white, just doesn't do anything for me on this shot. A 4
Kinda weak on conflict--this half full/empty thing is more perception than conflict, isn't it? Exposure is grainy and OOF--maybe that's what you were going for?
I find the water line very interesting in this shot. The way the light is playing off the glass to make it almost look like there is another glass inside is very cool. The exposure is good although the highlights are a little bright. I like the choice of black and white and the grainyness/scratches and or bubbles on the glass. However, I don't think this conveys conflict very strongly although I do see the connection to conflicting states of mind. This is a good example of a well centered shot with a reason behind it. 6
Dont mean to be rude but everybody can take a snapshot of a glass with water in it. The lightning is poor with a distracting reflexion on the glass and the pic is blurred and unsharp.
Okay, guess I see the conflict here but don't really find this very interesting to view. Technically, it's out of focus and appears to be tilted to the right some.
This is a good idea for this challenge. I think the glass needs to be a bit more in focus. Also, you may want to try the thirds rule for composition (instead of centering the subject maybe put it to the side). You may want to try using a tripod if the lighting wasn't strong enough to take the photo without handshake.
