OK, that was most enlightening! I'm going to try again and, if not successful, I can always use on of the broken pieces to slit my wrists. Thank you, author!

Hey, how did you do that, good author. I'm running out of glasses and bottles, but still no dice! Great shot!

Looks really great

Love the stem of the glass. Nice picture

Makes a magazine cover! Good job

If it weren't for the SBS, I would have frowned upon it, saying, ''Hey, author, the shooting of paintings is not allowed!!'' Great idea, great setting, great lighting... oh Lord, why everything about this image has to be soooo great?!

Exciting! I really love looking at it

Really nice

What? Stuyvesant, my favored brand? Unacceptable!!! Nice, clear pict.

Dear mods, if only in the case of those obnoxious, rude, and annoying people, give the contestants the right to ''shoot them dead'' on sight. They cause lots of inconvenience and trouble!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, that does it!

So much work for creating such an ugly think! Nice find, author

BabaRasta! He looks great

Watch out for the venom, little bird! Nice catch, author

Way to go! Congrats.

The look of wisdom! Very nice, author

OK, now you can sell them as antiques!

Lucky to have ponds and lakes nearby. Nice photo

Makes the difference. Great capture

Nice catch, literally and metaphorically speaking! Whatever happened to that lobster, author?

Think I know this guy! Great shot, author

Nice!!!

Nice, but you can hardly tell the source of light

By means of SBS you'd have to upload the original photo, i.e. the one you chose to worked on

This one really makes the difference. Thumbs up, author!!

Lots of work, and a good one at that!

I think that if you get rid of the overexposed surface of the water, it would look much-much better. Just an idea, but I may be worng

Nice job here

I think that the overexposed spots ruin the general picture here. If you crop it closer to the fish that seems to be your main focus, things will improve a great deal. Just a thought

I like this one

Stunning, but why you ''killed'' the colors? I think in color would look twice as beautiful. Just a thought...

looks good

Ha! Brilliant! Makes the difference! Choppers gonna love you!

Well executed, author.

Kind of neck-twisting this one

This pone makes the difference. Well done, author

Lovely take on the theme, authot

Looks very nice, author

Well done, my friend! Congratulations!

Well done. Congrats for 2nd place. Almost there...

Congrtas, amigo!

This is great! The one and only time that ever tried to do the same, I came that close from being arrested!

Thorough!

Wonderful! Really nice!

Shoo, fly, shoo

Author, maybe you should read more carefully the topic's guidelines. In the alphabet order, N, not B, follows M

Looks goooood!

Well done, author

Great set up

Something to do with the lady's thinning hair, I suppose
