HiMeg, What really made this image special to me was that Gold Glass. It really sets off the picture. The glass just seems to glow and draws your eye in immediately! Lighting is perfect and so is the focus! Very Nicely Done! :o) Helvi

Great vibrant coloring of those yummy looking red jelly beans and the vibrant gold on the glass. I like the little bit of the reflection on the table and the nice black background really lets these objects standout. Great focus and framing. Nicely done

Wow! When someone can take a photo of a glass and spilled jelly beans, and turn it into a work of art like this, they have exceptional talent. Very beautiful work.

Now this is a classy piece of work using light,colour,shapes and reflections.Your use of mirror like base to really bring out glass and beans is perfect. That gold and copper like hue in fine glassware lying on side really is first class. Every bean this group in better focus. My only little niggle is the edge of table cutting through and behind glass also couldn't work out other fine line passing round beans to middle stem at reflection area. A fine piece of work here.

You have a real talent for taking simple things, like still life elements and photographing them into a very sleek, elegant design. Everything in this photo is so clear and polished, such sophistication is what comes into mind. The background is great too, giving it a night time dinner party vibe to it.

Very pretty. I like the dark background with the bright pop of red from the jellybeans. Nice still life shot. Great detail too. Thanks for sharing.

meg119 - This delicate gem is just to elegant for mere words.

I am not going to elaborate on your camera savvyness, the image well documents your mastery of the third eye.

The composition is simple and uncluttered yet strong and compelling. The richness of the colors makes my mouth water.

The black background and mirror are an indispensable part of a lighting plan that generates a so flattering you want stay wrapped in it.

All the positive attributes of this sublime piece combine at once and invite the viewer to "Stay friend, tarry awhile".

I have reviewed pieces of yours, all were excellently done. But I think this is your finest to date ... B-)) Bob
