Awesome effect with the B & W colors. Love the reflective swirls in the liquid.

Looks nice, but I get the feeling I've seen this before here.

Neat shot. I like the abstractness of this shot.

Perhaps I'm thinking you can do less under Advanced than you actually can, but I can't think of how you would do this legally with that rule-set. Verification would settle my mind on this one!

Did you do the pencil tutorial? I wish the bottom crop revealed more of the stemmed glass, but I see your desire to concentrate on the orange. The cut/lighting on the orange to rest on the glass is awesome!

Nice job. I wish the orange was a little brighter/more colorful.

Really like this shot. The B&W with the lemon really work well. The lighting is right on and clarity and sharpness are great. Nice job.

Stands out good use of black and white puts the eye on the orange
