 This is a small hollow glass ball which is sitting on an upturned glass bowl.
I had one flash at the back of the dish slightly to the side and the other flash low down towards the front.
It’s been a great week reading the comments and watching the super score settle in around 6.8. Also a big thanks for the fav’s.

Funny how the word "Irene" just POPPED into my head when I saw the composition, clarity, and smoothness of this.

You're a legend in your own time.

Irene, I love how the purple hues melt into the golden fiery tones. A lovely flow and rhythm to this adventurous entry! Well done!

I like the rich golden tones (looks like a candle flame reflection?), but I'm not really sure what I'm looking at here.

I really like this. Very simple, almost monochromatic. I would crop this with a little less of the left edge and put this sphere at the thirds intersection (likely too much composition studies !!). I think this is "Bubble on Young Ladies Back". I like the sharpness of the bubble, I like the subtle colors at the top of the bubble. I really like this!

Great lighting and tonal control. Oddly, I find the reflection distracting.
