Very cool...especially intrigued by the different shadow silhouette with the middle ball.

The translucent objects make very interesting shadows. I also like the reflection of the clear ornament in the others.

Christmas is coming, thanks for the reminder :-) This is good, I've been getting in real close to my monitor trying to catch your reflection in one of the balls, but I can't see it. That isn't so easy to do, but you managed it. Also how you managed not to get any reflections at all in the front ball is beyond me. Very symmetrical, well done, I like it.

Interesting quality of light through the glass. Unfortunately the green ball seems more opaque to light and feels too heavy in comparison with the red and clear ball. I also am not so keen on the bell shape of the light falling on the surface though I like how it interplays with the dark round shadow from the balls. Composition of the three balls seems static and uninspiring. For some reason this image makes me think of flags - perhaps a tourist advert for a country looking to attract christmas visitors - can't recall which country has a flag with green, white and red?

Love the backlight to get the shadow/reflection. Nice composition. I gave it a 7.

8. Pretty and delicate. Photographing glass, in my opinion, requires high focus on the edges of the form.

Although I see shadows (had to look for them) glass doesn't really give much of one. Pretty photo, but it's a stretch to meet the challenge. IMHO.

Terrific shot ... love the way the bulbs cast colored shadows!

Nice clarity. A bit too static for my tastes, but still a nice photo, might make a good Christmas card.

Excellent work. I love the overall softness to this shot. The lighting couldn't be better. The shadows are mysterious with the bell like shapes within and the title is great. I would love to know how you pulled this off. When it is over please give us all the details on how you set this shot up.

I don't get the reference to _kings_ but I sure like the colors, composition and shadows. Cool idea.

Very well done indeed. Excellent use of coloured shadows, when most people consider a shadow has to be black.
