 Thanks for the 6+ score, at least I hope it'll be 6+ at roll-over (it went from 6.6 to 6.3 within the space of an hour during the week).
Also thanks for the comments, much appreciated as always.
I loved that Johanna tanguera noticed the condensation only on half the glass (I wondered if anyone would see that).

Another very fine piece of work from you. I'm always impressed by your individual images as they go by, as well as your consistently high level of performance.

What struck me most about this photo during voting was the shape of the light on the background. How did you do that? I'm guessing some kind of custom hood for a strobe, but it's only a guess. I hope I'm not asking a magician to tell me how she does her tricks... :)

Let's talk about flat lighting. This is NOT!

Very elegant light; the curves are all brought out beautifully.

well i like how you did manage to isolate the light but the subject matter is just so overdone i wish you'd have used this lighting idea with a more orignal subject 6

Good control of your light - I particularly like the way it manages to bring out the texture of the glass, no mean feat! In terms of composition, I would have preferred a centimetere and a half (about 3/4") chopped from the bottom, and on a really pernickity note, I would prefer the background/base join to be more blended on the right hand side. All in all, though, very good work.
