I decided after a few months of not entering it was about time I entered again. I have been struggling for inspiration but as I work near the Turner Museum of Glass I decided to see what they had there. After all where better to find some glass but at a glass museum! Unfortunately the displays had seen better days but I liked this glass bowl:

Camera: Canon EOS 350D Digital
Exposure: 0.001 sec (1/800)
Aperture: f/2.0
Focal Length: 50 mm
Exposure: +1.24
ISO Speed: 400
Exposure Bias: 0 EV
Flash: Off, Did not fire
Date and Time (Original): 2009:09:16 12:41:34+01:00

Annoyingly the week before they had a glass-blowing session at the museum. Wish I'd been able to go then and photograph that! Oh well, next time maybe.

Nice - I like the choice to defocus the near edge for a change

Yes, an unusual focal point and it looks great! Very nice choice of subject.

Nice...as I scrolled down I thought it was going to be a crown or tiara!

Thanks for the comments - glad you liked it.

Like the slightly abstract feel of this - feel like you could have punched up the colours a little though...
