 I've always wanted to try this...

Just wish I could have used spot editing to get rid of the reflections.

i actually still have to try this, it keeps me intrigued on how to control the lighting.

in your shot thought the problem was not the reflection, but the oversaturation of the colors, i am not sure if you did that to hide the reflections. but in my opinion should have def. scored higher.

This one hurts my eyes! I, too, had to try this after seeing it done here. It's a neat trick and fun to do. This just seems really flat and too bright to my eye.

How cool! I've seen this done several times and it always impresses me. :)

The vibrant green almost creates a moving optical illusion!

The image appears a bit flat. May I suggest a curves adjustment for midtone contrast. Try doing a forum search for s-curve.

seems overexposed or too white. hurts to look at. the glass has lost its definition. and its slightly tilted to the left.these shots are always hard though because those few who do them often here on DPC do them so well that it makes you used to seeing perfection.

What's the spot on the left side of the glass? I can't tear my eyes away from it! ;^)

Personally I'm not too fond of this type of photo, but that doesn't mean they can be done well. I yours I find a few flaws.
It needs a bit of rotation to the right, it's not really sharp and personally I would've preferred a different (darker?) shade of green. 4

Seems fuzzy, out of focus. Also hurts the eyes.

It is a good idea, but feels a little flat with no "punch" or "pop".....

Very cool. It's like a drawing ;)

The glass is tilted which is distracting.
