The clear pieces could have been a bit more in focus, if they were i would have given you a 10.

I like the way you've set this up, but I think the light has made the white pieces look a bit 'fake' somehow, almost like in a film where they've not used CGI very well!
Love how the light fades towards the far side of the board though. 7

Nice still life - maybe try it with the clear side closer so you can get big(ger) internal reflections.

Is this a single light source as in one bulb shining or several of the same studio type lights? I wasn't sure how to interpret this challenge. Very nice photo.
