The fish eye effect is very effective, but the combination of sharp detail and soft focus causes one to constantly squint and try to clear the eye - it would not be too strong a statement that this effect makes the eyes water from trying to resolve the various elements into a cohesive whole. Additionally, the over done white framing on the wine bottle also creates an unnerving effect and makes the viewer uncomfortable. A better approach might have been to use a mitigating screen on the window such as a light curtain which would have reduced the over done white and reduced the glare to a more managable level for the viewer. From an artistic standpoint, this is a well constructed set piece that fails from some rather severe techical issues.
