Made of Glass

WOW, stunning psychedelic image that shows real still life photographic skills. The mirror surface effect works perfectly, sometimes if you chose the wrong mirror surface you can get double reflections. It must of been great fun making this image and I think its full of joy!

If a photo of a drink make you crave one, then its worked as an image! I would love to be in the bar sharing these martini's with friends. I like the way you got really close to the first frosted glass and the perspective along the counter top. Cheers!

Lovely pastel vases expertly photographed and beautifully arranged and composed. Reminds me of a flock of Flamingos. The backlight is perfectly exposed to transmit through the vases to show shape and colour but not too strong to blow the high lites. I'm really please the photographer has resisted the temptation to turn the saturation up to 11.

Great shot, it is really good, and thanks for giving details of how you made it. Using the TV seen really worked as you have got colour spectrum in the "spotlight". I may of been tempted to have a little more of the ballerina's face in shot. You have made strong creative decisions and shown problem solving skills which are essential in great sill life images.

This image has got everything, strong composition, amazing colour, beautiful architecture. Without the person sitting in contemplation it would be a nice shot but not great. I would love to visit Iran one day and see where this image was made.

This image is one of my favourites. It has a lovely soft tone of the glass bottle and background but the direct lighting is still strong enough to cast a distorted shadow on the curved mottled paper background. You have proved that glass objects make great still life subjects!

This image is some much fun, it's great to see lots of people in a photo comp about glass, and the glass floor really give me a feeling of vertigo! Is that you, the photographer in the top right corner? One of my favourites. thank you.

This image instantly reminded me of Man Ray and the Avant-garde movement of the 1920s. The way the black part of the BG is refracted in the opposite way in the wine glass is a classic photographic study. I also like the fact that you have built a Black and White set but kept the image colour!

I think our photographers eye loves symmetry and repeated pattens in architectural images. This images seems perfectly symmetrical and is enhanced by its single colour tones of blue. How many triangles are there I wonder? any volunteers offering to count them?

A dynamic image which proves you should always look up when you're in the city! I'm usually not a fan of a lot of post-processing but in this case I think it works. I love working the City of London and this image reminds me of what I've been missing over the last year!

Thanks for this image, I'm going to the pub as soon as I finish the judging. I simple photo of an everyday subject but it invokes a summers day walk and getting a county pub in the early evening with the sun poring onto the bar top. Shows the power of a good image.

Love the composition of this image, the building is so spectacular that you would think it should be more central in the frame, but the photographer has made the choice to give the moody sky most of the frame. The setting sunlight through the glass building and big sky make a great image.

I love minimalist architectural images and this one is perfect. Of corse the open window automatically draws your eye but for me its also how none of the lines are perfectly horizontal or vertical. The soft tones are lovely and I like the way the diagonal corner of the glass building splits the image in half.

Classic photomontage with a contemporary twist, I like the models styling. The comping is done really well so the people really look like they are in the bottles, eg, leaning on the jars sides. But for me its the colourful magical light and sprinkles that make this such an appealing image,
