And now for something a little more traditional.

Neat!

Is this an allegory of the deified George W. Bush rising above
the masses and causing them to rise up through his transformational powers?

One thing that you might want to try is including something
above the shiny objects that they can reflect.  Some interesting
effects can be created with a plane or sphere outside of camera
view with a high-contrast checker or other pattern.

Il like it very much !

There are very nice textures, and the shapes are well chosen.
Unfortunately, the whole scene seems a bit... empty, I don't know how to
say this. Maybe the top sphere is too much reflective.
Anyway, good job !

I like it! That's a very original twist on the classic old image :)

Like some of the others have said there's too much black emptiness reflecting in
the to sphere. Also I's suggest using a brighter, smaller specular highlight on
the reflective sphere, because something that shiny shouldn't have a dull
highlight.
