This is so neat, don't know why it barely broke a 5!
Jeez, sometmies DPCers frustrate me.

Anyways, yeah, very cool shot. Not too fond of the border, but that's just my personal preference. :)

And no critique this time either...I don't know really what could be changed about this one, it's pretty nice as it is. :) I like the shadow. Maybe clone some of the dirty junk off the bulb though?

There were many light bulbs in this challenge but this one is the most creative. The shadow makes the shot for me. I also like that I can actually see all edges of the bulb.

IMO this would have been really good if the light was coming from a steeper angle so the shadow was some what aft more of the bulb

Those two black lines on the picture, they look very distracting!

Nice idea, should have washed the bulb and gotten the goobers off it. Love the shadow/reflection combination and play on the title. 7
