It's amazing what you can do with something as simple as a straw. Very good! Congrats!

This should have won the blue. There is a lot going on in the picture "out of the ordinary." Also has a sort of 70's feel to it. Very good work!

the colors in this are just gorgeous. i wouldn't have known what i was looking at had you not put it in your title... and i would never have thought to take this picture, either. the light source is curious, i'd like to know how you achieved the effect. 9

Terrific abstract. Love your use of llight on the straws. You've taken an every day object and made it extraordinary. 10

Absolutely gorgeous abstract. The border really adds to it too! MY top pick. Good luck!

Very graphic and well done. Colors are great. Border is a bit too much for me.

The bits of hair / dust on a couple of the straws is quite distracting, but appart from those minor bits this is a stunning abstract, well done...

Sensational is the only word that describes the lighting here.
Post actions
Wow, this is truly fabulous. I love the lighting, colors, and textures. Particularly interesting is the way the light leaves streaks along the inside of the straws. The only thing that bugs me is the bit of fuzz on the second straw from the left side on the middle row. If the image was a tiny bit tidier with respect to that and the very slight noise present, I'm thinking it could be a 10. I say 9.

Such a simple idea, but VERY effective!! I really like this, the different colouring through the straws is amazing, I predict high things for this one.

Very nice. I love the colors and my eye just wanders around and does not get distracted the longer I look the more I like it... 9. Are these really straws?
