Hmmm - What is it? by luckyshot

krt: I suspect this may well win the current contest! Beautiful shot, very well executed. Recommended for the permanent gallery.

Nikoneer: Yeah, it has to be a glass vase or bowl. The giveaway is the bubbles I'm seeing here and those swirls of color are sometimes created by rolling the hot molten glob of glass in small shards of broken colored glass or dribbling other molten colored glass onto the original glob, sometimes pinching the glass with long tweezers to get the color to flow in other directions. Each time some color is added, the glob is spun at a speed fast enough to spread the color through centrifugal force. The glass glob is put back into the furnace each time another layer of color is added. I think this one took some time to create.

In&Out by zunazet

Nikoneer: I know what this is but I'll send my answer to you in a PM so as to not give it away to anyone else viewing it (but it's a *a** *****). And Chris is right about the diagonals; they enhance the image and also help disguise what it is. Good luck in the contest.

What is it? by krt

LynEve: I have no idea what it is - the colours are an attractive mix.
:)

tklemz: I think it may be something you would use in a fish tank.
Like one of those decorative mountains(or whatever they are!)

Zava: Looks like a huge plastic structure. The colored candy-looking things appear to have some dust on them. Perhaps this is in an art expo?
