I'm very pleased with this and that makes me nervous because whenever I get excited with the results, a lot of people usually don't like it lol.
There are a few things I would have changed if I had the time to do it. But I don't have the time, so here we go...

Edit to add during the challenge (because I can do this now - wheeee!): my fave thing about this was the background lol. And no one likes it. The scene I had in my head was of a restaurant with a nice tablecloth (which I messed up with not straightening it) and the rustic stone background. Maybe if I had toned down the wall a bit this would have done better.

I love the arrangement of the still life, with the smaller glasses in the back and that simple addition of the grapes in just the right place. I find the stone background distracting and the horizontal line across the center breaks up the flow of the image. I think you did a very nice job of lighting the glasses to bring out the detail of the cut design.
It must be glassware and I'd certainly know that if I were looking at a catalog. The rims of glasses are especially tough but you've done a nice job with it: 9
I love this photo. Nice work. This is a small detail, but ironing the table cloth would smooth out the background some and eliminate a line that draws the eyes attention away from the focal point
Pretty shot, though I think the rough brickwork at the back detracts a little from the crisp fine lines of the glasses. Maybe a plain background would highlight those details more.
