Light reflection is a bit too strong for me.

Good effort, a lot of planning is obvious here, but over all the photo sucks...an excellent example to too much thought into a photo.

This is nice, but the dust on the glass is distracting. The details can make or break a photo...

The lens flare is just too distracting for me to consider the rest of the photograph.

Can't really make out any definition in the glass.

That's an awful lot of negative space on the left side of the frame... This would work much better, in my eye, cropped down almost (but not quite) in half. I do like the reflection and lighting and such, but... the composition just isn't working for me.

Kind of a cliche subject matter, but I like the off center and the lens flare on the glass.

Interesting rainbow around your burst of light, I like the reflections at the bottom of the glass but find the spots on the top portion distracting, maybe over-sharpened?
