| It can be a challenge to use a fun tool like Liquefy with restraint, which you have done here. Nice work. |

| Nice job on the editing, very smoothly done. It must remind some of the mind altered states of the 60's, but clearer. Too bad about the DQ. |

This shot has so much WOWOWOWWOWOW potential. I really love the glass, the effects are just mind bogglingly fantastic. The base has to be my absolute favorite part Perfectly oozy. (-;. The Rim is also very fantastic. But, I think you went overboard with the lemon. I would love to see a perfectly intact lemon on this warped glass. I think also keeping the plastic wrap on the inside edge of the lemon would be great and the effect lessens as it goes to the outside.
I really enjoy the green and yellow I think the shades and brightnesses are fantastic, however, I am wondering what if the background was brighter? I would love to see this with all black, and all white variants to really see how the effect changes.
You did a great job here... Just pushed the rules to far and they broke 6-; Nice image (-; and rules are made to be broken. |

| Bummer about the DQ - this is a really interesting, Dali-esque photo. I think this would sell well. Wonderful lighting and composition. |

| Really like this photo: the color, composition, and light. The special effect is excellent. With the right frame, and printed in a large size on some really nice art paper, this would look great on a wall. |

| Wow, I really liked this one too - sorry about the dq! Funny, I thought the glass was real! Wasn't quite sure what happened with the lemon though! I think you did a great job with the pp on this. |

| way cool glass but which edge do you drink from?! A smooth background might have been nicer that a textured one. |
