well, that is some nice stuff to try out some concepts in PS i guess, but as for stock, don´t know.

why is that cup exploding ? do we know/care ? what could it be used for ???

and if you do such stuff, at least look for the details, in fact that isn´t a detail anymore in this case: your reflection is still showing the cup before exploding, and as long as the concept was not to show "the cup exploding faster than her own reflection" that is a mayor bug, an absolute no go and would point you out as a total noob, sorry

as far as you have it now, it might be the very early start for something, who knows, but if you rest with that i think it´s pretty useless

bottom line: i miss any concept here

I like the idea. What will it sell? I don't know, but it has a sense of fun to it that I like. Why not try a series of three. One as is, one with an intact cup and a smashed cup in the reflection and one with the smashed cup in both positions.

I can't see it being a huge seller but comercial value is unpredictable. I see no reason not to have a go.

Like the idea but perhaps you could apply it to some other subject that might be more commercial?
