Cut Glass

Liked the shapes, colours, reflections & symmetry on this.
Minor tweaks of contrast & brightness in CS3.





Cheers

Terry

Re: Cut Glass

An interesting combination of unusual colour and hard textures, well spotted!

Re: Cut Glass

Like the colour and texture / detail in the glass. It's at a slight angle though.

Re: Cut Glass

that looks really interesting. If it wasn't in this competition I wouldn't have guessed it's glass

Great entry for sure

Re: Cut Glass

This is an interesting shot. I agree with Ian, this would look better if the detail in the glass was completely straight or at an exaggerated angle. As the angle is neither it doesn't really work. But the colours and subject are good.

Re: Cut Glass

Not sure if this is a tight crop or at the limits of the photo already, but I think it could have done with coming out a bit to catch more detail, like the points on the star top and bottom, and then possibly a square crop (I seem to like these, don't I....)
