The good life. The dark predominance wotks well to bring out the good skin colors. Whatever brand pour me a glass. Bumping up.

This is a good idea. I wish you'd chosen a different colored background because your shirt and the wine blend into it. I like your hands in this shot, and you have a very friendly look on your face.

I think it's a bit too dark.

Excellent exposure and a fine self portrait. I think cropping the left side would create a more dynamic composition, and backlighting the wine would have been a nice touch.

Nice one. Probably with some kind of clear wine would be better. Nice lighting on your face and hands. Good one. 8

a bit more backlighting would have added some more depth

How many takes here, = how many glasses = a good time,
Relaxed and simple.

Great! The black works really well - a slightly lighter colored wine might have stood out a little better, but I'm guessing what you like best is the color that's in the glass.

hehe ;-)

I think the black jumper spoils what is potentially a great shot
good luck
