The bowl and teapot are really nicely polished :-)

Well composed and I like the colour treatment. This is very arty and could be framed and hung in a kitchen/cafe very easily. Nice shot, Cuz!

Hey Dawn, you look really good. I like your top - is it new?

The 70-300 has worked well here, and the different looks good - quite unusual

Good job MF

Tea for me? Nah..thanks, tea is for sissies :-) But a nice cup of black coffee? Yeah...!

Don't take me serious Dawn, this is a great experiment, well executed! The blue-purple colour tone is superb and the image in the reflecting tea-set wonderfull. Yep this picture appeals to my taste!

I love it!
I love the view of your living room and it was very clever of you to use the zoom to keep yourself minimized in the reflections
Superb composition

Hi Dawn, this is really interesting, the reflection is amazing, and your tea pot incredibly clean for someone who never use them!! ;) the purple hue looks good too!

Hi Dawn,

Some time ago I used my gleaming teapot to show a lovely high tea in my garden, but your moody purple tea- and sugar pots are a much stronger and moodier use of high tea reflections.

Hi Dawn,

I love this the compostion is perfect and the purple tones really make it work. How did you avoid getting in your own reflection?

Cheers

Very interesting shot,Dawn! So your 70-300mm lens are no longer an ornement! Cheers! I like the result which is creative and of great interest,looking at you on the coach looking at us on the tea pot,etc,etc,.I am surprised though by the color,where is it coming from? TFS

Very cool color and tones. I really find the crop interesting and abstract. Might look cool in BW as well, maybe even blue. Very nice!

Hi Dawn,I was really impressed with all those fantastic sunsets & landscapes of your beautiful country,nearly to the point of thinking of visting your lovely Island,until now,
you mean you make tea by putting a tea bag in your mug,bad enough its not in a tea pot, but a mug? Just kidding Dawn,I drink mine from a mug to.Did you find that the purple hue gave a more detailed reflection than without the hue?

Too bad Helen came up with the Reflection theme AFTER you posted this shot! Love how the shapes and surfaces create the distorted wide-angle reflections, like those round mirrors on the sharp curves of winding roads. Great shot and presentation:)
