I especially like the textures, and the colours too of course. Is this some sort of liquid or is it glass? I assume liquid based on the image title but it sure does look like blown glass. Either way, great shot.

It is glass, Gus. But the image looked enough like liquid to justify the name, to me, at least. Thanks!

Such an interesting set of colors and textures going on here.  It goes to show, getting in close can yield stunning new photographic opportunities.  What did the whole item look like?

I agree with all the other compliments already.  This is very interesting.  How big is the full piece?

Thank you. The piece is perhaps 2.5ft across. If you are interested, I have some more images of Chihuly's work:

I've seen this persons glass sculptures in Vegas.  You gave "make me think" spin here.  I like it!  You think on what this could be.

One word: Wow! I couldn't tell what the subject was until I read everyone else's comments, but to me that made all the more fascinating.
