It is not very clear that this is glass, as the focus is more on the stems and water than the glass, but the suggestion of glass is very much there, I really like the picture myself, and thought as it gives the suggestion of glass that it would be appropriate for the challenge..

Very nice image. I like how the water bubbles can be seen so clearly in the image. I don't see any of the glass though.

I like how the line across the glass and the bubbles distinguishes between the air and water.

this dowmplays the glass but is a striking image! The blue blobs in the background detract from the simplicity and power of the stems, but who cares? A GREAT image! - 8 -

In terms of the challenge topic, this doesn't really work for me because you can't see the glass.

Nice work, creative way of looking at things!

Good one! The water bubbles on the stems are what give this photo that extra boost.

I think the photo is good, but I'm not sure if really fits the challenge. I don't think enough focus was given to the glass.

Nice idea - the background is too distracting. Put a dark card behind the vase to isolate the subject.

Nice symetrical effect. The white bands of overexposed areas are very distracting.

one of my favourites of the competition. I like that you left this in it;s naturaly habitat so to speak...it wouldn't have worked with a bland studio backdrop nearly as well. 8

Love the navy and the green. Great job and awesome choice of depth of field.

More of a photo of stems than glass. Good of stems, not of glass.

That's a great shot of stems and water. Unfortunately, the only glass in this is 'offscreen,' as it were, holding the water back. Maybe a different crop, to show the shape of the vase, would have gotten a higher mark from me. Nice macro focus, though, and use of the meniscus.
