This one is pretty cool, I hope the DNMC nazis are leaving it alone as you now have a liquid in the bulb and the whole point was to photograph glass that wasn´t for holding liquid. I definately think this fit´s the challenge, very clever, love the lighting and color contrast, only thing I really dislike is the frame but I tried not letting that affect the score wich is 8 from me.

cool set up, though the photo would have had that extra WOW factor if the straw had been illuminated like the neon star behind. Good lighting!

The criteria says nothing that holds water
  Photographer found comment helpful.

pretty cool! I wonder how you've created the blue lines in the background. I think the straw in the bulb and the top of the bulb could be a bit lighter, right now the background is too much of an eye-catcher..
