I particularly like some of those shots by FBJ, PuckMonkey, ValleyFan, Otto, Puchkead, Rinkrat's skulls, etc.
I finally put up my shots this morning, and while they don't compete with some of the cool shots in this thread, I'm glad that you guys have given me the motivation to play with what my camera can do.
Thanks, everyone!

That right there is some KICK ASS stuff, my friend! I really really like the composition of "Tea Ball 2" and "Ring of Fire." Maybe a bump in contrast and color vibrance (or if you're using Lightroom, a 5% increase in black clipping) would be all I'd suggest to try and get the colors to pop even more. "Softserve 2" is really cool, as well! Though with that one, maybe re-shot so the bulb is in focuse rather than the far edge of the reflector.

Great stuff!
Yeah, those three are untouched, and I imagine I could get them a bit more dramatic with some after effects. The softserve stuff I was just doing handheld in my office, and it was before I really started playing with the macro focus. If I were to do some prep work to set up shots, I imagine I could do some neat things.
It's been pretty cool just looking at normal things with a more stylistic eye. I appreciate the push...
Teeny, those are excellent! I especially like Ring of Fire, blue flame, and tea ball 2. Ignition is really cool also. The blue-flame and lighter effects looked sweet in all those. I'm WAY too much of a DSLR nOOb to critique, but I can give props. Great job!!
Nice job Teeny. I agree with FBJ that "Tea Ball" and "Ring of Fire" are very nice. The composition on "Tea" is very professional and I really like the background and the lighting. Awsome job. Also, the way you created the ring of fire was very clever. We have a lot of very talented people around here!
Two days until we end this challenge, everyone. Start thinking about putting your last few images into your picture posts! ValleyFan should start thinking about who he's going to tap to choose the next theme, which I'd like to have up and running by Monday the 28th.
On Friday morning, I'm going to sift through and pare down everything that isn't critique. There's only a little, so thanks for sticking to the guidelines for the most part!
I think that this has gone fairly smoothly for a first attempt. There are some things that are just kind of tough to do within the confines of a bulletin board system's thread, but I think once we learned how things worked, it was relatively easy to go back and review new images.
Because I had so much fun with this one, I want to set up a second Challenge right away. I want to see if there's ways I can improve how the everything works, so PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE send me ideas for improvement of the Challenge via PM.
personally i was never that pumped on glass being the subject to begin with, hence the lack of photos, however im gonna try to get a couple in more before the deadline
I thought it was a good theme choice. I had fun shooting it. I did have some worries that some of the folks new to the hobby would go, "Glass? **** that that's too hard." But that hasn't been the case. Everyone that's participated has really jumped in with both feet.
