Excellent mood and composition is great. I like it a lot.

I wrote you a nice big comment and the bloody site lost it :-( Here i go again. I happened twice, but the second time around i had it copied to clipboard.

I really like the concept, but the photographic execution is slightly under par, IMO.

I like:
- The separation of the red subject from the rest of the image using light and darkness. Selective colour without Photoshop :-)
- The composition. The rule of thirds really works well in this image and it is used effectively.
- The inclusion of the hand/finger in the shot. It adds to the storytelling and the human element.

I would prefer if:
- The glass was a bit larger. Is it a glass or a candle holder or another decoration?
- The glass was a standard clear wine glass filled (about 1/3) with red wine (or some red liquid) instead of the glass itself being red.
- Maybe some more light on the finger, given the red fingernail. I might add to the visual impact of the image. Just maybe.
- A bit more sharpness (or DoF) around the glass. The sharpest elements in the image are the finger (the part where the nail ends) and some stray hair strands.
