Nicely composed. The reflection of the sun and sky on the glass is great.

I might have tried overlapping the glass with its shadow slightly, to allow for a less skinny aspect-ratio, and to make it a little less half-&-half.

Why did you make it monochrome? I can see potential for great use of colour, here.

very nice capture of clouds in the magnifying glass. i think the composition may be a bit too tight though.

Great capture - tough to work with those lighting extremes. I think black/white was a good choice as well. Well done.

Does demonstrate a scientific property well, but a bit on the plain side as a photo other than one to meet the challenge. Maybe if shot so the magnifying glass overlapped it's shadow more. I do like the clouds in the reflection - more of that would add interest as well.

Good subject. We thought about using the magnifying glass to melt little green army men, which my son likes to do.

Just once, I'd really like to see a little black dot with a curl of smoke rising above it.... :P Just kidding. Nice work, but ever-so-slight motion blur happening...

hmm
this is just boring

This is cropped too tightly - the magnifying glass should have some room on the right. Some of the edges look slightly blurred also. You could add more interest with a little smoke.
