 I love the colors but the reflections in the front on the glass are driving me bat s%?&. I wanted to do a retake, but alas, I had no time. The reflection is off the table ... I could have fixed the problem by adding a piece of black cardboard on the table.

Ah well, fun challenge.

The only very tiny thing I found wrong with this photo at all (and you probably think I'm nitpicking, which maybe I am), was the slightly crookedness of the lines in the lower right. I gotta love this photo, I think it will place.

I like this. I wish it were photgraphed on another base (no mirror). The upper part is attractive then the lower part becomes busy witht he reflection. Also would have eliminated, or at least minimized (I believe) the distortion .

This is great.
I love what's happened to the smileys in the glasses. Would maybe have worked even better if shot exactly straight on.

what a happy image! love the colors, the distortion of the smilies thru the glasses..
Have a question.. did you get any photos of the entire reflection that you may have been able to rotate to use as the image? Just wondering what that may have looked like.. just musing.
great job on this one.

That's fun. Perhaps the faces at the bottom of the back wall could have been finished at the edge of their colour squares - to continue the pattern better.

Great idea. I really like the way this was done. Good color portrayal and a nice clear photo make high marks in this challenge

Clever. I think the glass on the right refaracts the image behind it a bit too much and therefore becomes a bit distracting but it's still one of the better shots in the challenge. Good job.

Great shot! I LOVE the refraction of the background through the glasses.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good idea, and great idea using the mirror below to make it look like a complete wall of smily faces.

What a neat idea! Very clever and the colors are vibrant. Just to be picky...the only thing that distracts is the reflection on the glasses.
