Thank you for all the comments and the high score. It pleases (and surprises) me that this did so well. I generally struggle with still life challenges, and don't typically score well on them. I did experiment a lot with the lighting and composition, but, to be honest, I think I got lucky with this one that it turned out well. Next still life challenge, I expect to be mid-pack again.

This is photographed by a master. I can tell, the lighting is just superb and so is the composition. I feel this could be the blue.
