Very nice shot. There is something that's not quite right, but I really can't put my finger on it. I have stared at this shot for awhile now trying to figure it out, but when I look at all aspects seperatly, it all seems good.
I think while the focus seems good, the clarity isn't there. The glass looks odd. I think it has something to do with the blown out areas making it look less clear than my brain wants to see it. I'm not really sure how to fix this, and since you left me very little details/comments to go by, I can't really offer much editing advice either. Only my personal opinion.
I wonder if a dramatic angle might help, or maybe not have the glass right in the center of the image.
I like the color. The dark blue works really well, but the lighter blue doesn't seem to fit as well.
The light in the upper right doesn't distract for me, I actually like it, but maybe it seems a little too blown out.
Overall, very appealing image. Excellent visual appeal and Technically well done.

i really like this picture and would like to know how you did it, if you could pm me that'd be cool
i'm guessing an led at the end of a string, long exposure, and you just kinda swung it around

a fun image to view - following the trail of light into the glass. The only distracting element is the thicker light trail in the upper right hand corner. Nice crisp focus

love the idea, but you blasted this photo with too much contrast. furthermore, the light swirl in the top right corner (the largest line) is distracting to the composition. 7
