7th Place (Tie)
Hot Glass

by

Not really hot, it just looks that way :-)
This is an actual photo (even the black background is natural). The only post processing was sharpening (and the added border of course).
What the heck is it?

Very, Nice Shot! Really Like It!

Well, Tabrizi was pretty close. Actually, it's a clear cut-glass bud vase, sitting on a clear glass table. A small orange light was placed under the table, directly below the vase. All other lights were turned off and the shot was taken looking straight down into the vase. The small light only penetrated the vase, leaving the background area completely black.

Wow, bottles. Great image!!!! I think it may be a bowl on a black table but whatever it is, I like it ;-))

That is a nice one, bottles! I like it (though I can’t figure out what it is; my very first guess was: an ashtray? But after reading your text I do know I was wrong...). — db.
