Yes, I find this to be a beautiful photograph, but I don't find it particularly creative in any way. I feel like I've seen it before...

The water here reminds me of stars...which I like! What I'm not sure about is the choice of focus. The left side of the photo seems sharp and my eye is trying to make the right half do the same. I like the movement of this shot- & I'm loving the tone.

I defo appreciate the unique concept here- I look forward to reading about how you executed this 'burn out' effect. I'm not nuts about the floating aspect of the subjects and I'm wanting more *pop* from the colors. I feel like this is such a good idea, but somehow it falls just below the mark for me...

3.2.1... Liftoff

The only entry in this challenge to take an angle like this. The lighting is beautiful- feels like the bottle is escaping from the sun. Beautiful. No implications on my vote- but I really wish the safety wrapper had been removed.

I really like this idea. The cold steel lines are not only beautiful, and a great choice as far as coloring that compliment the Absolut bottle. But something in the lighting/ prop placement seems awry. The bottle is almost completely illegible and (this is my own PP in this challenge) the safety wrapper is still intact. The viewer is teased with the lines being reflected in the water- would have loved to see those possibilities..

This is a beautiful- creamy blue shot. With the subject only filling up the middle 1/5 th of the image, I can't help but feel like a tighter crop would make a stronger statement. While this is pretty to look at, this doesn't really make me want to drink Absolut. It's not outstanding for me..

ABSOLUT™ IMPOSTER

I really appreciate the idea here. I must admit, not being familiar with Red Hook beer, it took me a moment to 'get it'. You would have nailed it if the torn label had been a part of the reflection as well. BTW- upon reviewing all my votes a second time, I gave this piece a higher score. Creative Points:D

ABSOLUT AL DENTE.

Title alone- pasta is the first thing that comes to mind. Should I be implying a pun? A crisp, clear image that is beautifully lit. The execution here is wonderful. I have such mixed feelings on this piece! I appreciate the creative effort but I'm super turned off by the mixed ideas of consumption & bloody pain. Overall, a very memorable image.

Absolute Treasure

With this title- I'm really wanting to see some sparkly, shiny objects in this image. With out the title, I'm not sure I would have distinguished a treasure box from this image. I like the proportions of your subjects in this shot and the colors are appealing. In fact, I'm surprised at how well the white bottle shows up here! I also like the texture of the sand contrasted with the smoothness of the bottle.
