Lovely objects, but I think you would have been better ot concentrate on just one of them.

Beautiful, but glowing rather than shiny.
Thanks for the comment. By that definition in the theme comments, this seems like it would be shiny. The colors inside are the result of reflecting light (like a prism), and the white reflection along it's length shows the gloss).
I see the shine in this picture, it is right down the middle of the piece. I would have cropped this a bit though...maybe take some off the left hand side.
Howdie stranger!
