Well, the idea for this was taken from a photograph of Oscar Villan. It was a great experiment for me to try to get an acceptable photograph to enter the dpchallenge. I spent three days with a bulb in my pocket to find out the best conditions to get a good reflection and it was really difficult, the image distortion due the curvature of the bulb was obviously always very high and also i get double reflected images one in the front glass of the bulb and one on the rear glass, even many times i get inverted images!

Very well executed, the reflection seems almost as an afterthought... I did not notice it until I consciously made the effort - the blub is so prominent.

Overall light abnd darks are good. Wish reflected object were more interesting, though the subtle colouring of the same is good

No water? No trees? Doctor! Medicate this snapster. Well done, way to go (which, by default, usually means the other way) 8

If this photo was a little bit clearer it would be fantastic!

not bad, pretty grainy though doesn't appear to take away from photo. better focus on the reflection is what it needs to do well in this challenge. and i still see some bluey in there against the white? did you want that?

Excellent use of B/W to bring out the reflection.
