Interesting composition. Usually, by the time I have a beer in hand, I am not that clear thinking. Good execution on hte shot.

Really strong shot here! Very good idea, think it meets the challenge well.

The lighting here maybe could have been improved a little though. The reflections on the glass, and the bright line on the label could have been avoided. Maybe diffuse the light with some thin paper in front of your flash?

Don't get me wrong, I think your picture is really good. The idea is great, the DOF you've used really adds to it on two levels. If the person is drunk they will only be able to see what's in front of them, and you've also shown the family as if it's away in the distance from him. Well done! 8

Good use of an image to send a message; however, it does lack some visual power, which detracts from the effectiveness of your photo.

This is a top shot, but way to small.

Great concept, but it seems that you've used a photo for your background and I wish your BG was something more immediate. Also, finding too much glare in the bottle. Good composition and cropping.

an "altered" point of view for sure. This shot tells a story, and has a creative take on the POV requirement.

Too literal for me.

Innovative use of pov. The fuzzy background is an excellent artisic choice. Minor nit - something is weird about the hand and draws my attention away from the other effective elements. Well done, otherwise
