Gazing ball, comments please

Hello,

I just got the nifty fifty and have been taking some shots. I would appreciate some comments on composition and overall quality. Thanks in advance

BTW - Thats me in the reflection

I like the idea. I find the cars in the background a bit distracting.

I'm going to agree with the comment about the cars in the background. Place the ball somewhere where you have a more consistant background; some trees would probably be cool.

I definitely like the idea and the colour composition. But, as mentioned earlier, it's a bit difficult to find you

You can pretty much always find the camera/photographer smack in the center of a reflecting sphere.
I just finished a challenge to shoot this kind of ball without the camera visible in the shot (not allowed to clone/mask it out afterwards). It was challenging to say the least!
