ummm I see the oil but where the water. Withot seeing the water I get no feel of separation. I think the waters under the oil but It also looks like it could just be part of the glass. I think this would have looked alot better if the glass had been fuller to better show the separation. not bed .. not great 5

The idea of separation of fluids and of shadow and substance is a good one, however these two, in this composition, compete for attention. The shadow would have been more effective at a severe angle to and some distance from the substance it resembles. By placing them so close, they distract from each other and leave me dissatisfied with the result.

I'm fairly early in the scroll, but this is the third take I've seen on oil/water and I think the best so far. Simple, but a couple of contrasting colors and the reflection to add interest. My only suggestion is that while I like the offset glass, I would have left a little more space on the left than you did.

Not bad for an oil/water shot. Thought I'd see more of these. Love the shadow on the wall, however I'm really turned off by the pesky blown out bottom and right side.

Loved the lighting and that reflection/shadow!
Too bad there's way too many oil and water pics!
