A circular polarizer balanced on a book with a flashlight behind. This (or similar) has been done before in DPC.
The blue is way too blue and should have been more purple'ish but it's way past bedtime and close to deadline so it will have to do.

One capture only but put together from three edits in LightRoom in order to get the different colors.

I adore that song, good choice having this set-up on a love song page. I love the red reflection from blue glass.

Great, I'll be humming this for the rest of the night. A clever twist on a clichéd effect. I like it.

It's nice, I've just seen this done too man times now and it doesn't strike that "chord" in me.

This is a bit overdone here on DPC, but this is the best of the bunch in this challenge, in my opinion. I liek the red and blue. Very cool. Also, the sharpness is great. 7

I like this and like the way the filter color turns into red. There is nothing to criticize in the image, but as you know others have used it before so you will lose some originality points.

A different twist on this photo, to make the reflection a different colour. Nice.

I like this photo, but I feel that that this style has been over played. Good composition, but I the lighting came from one direction.
