An olive or onion would have "qualified" too...

Very well done! Good use of lighting without any harsh reflections or blown highlights. Another creative and pleasing image.

angle adds little, for me

Nice composition and balance of color.

I like the concentrated color and glinty contrast in this picture.

For me, the reflections in the green liquid are really competing with the strawberries for attention though. Just a thought, but I wonder if the strawberries had been placed either to the right or left so that the arc of hilights led up to the strawberries, it might pull it together better. Not sure though, just wondering. --JPerez

wonderful shot and composition..like the tilt and reflections (9)

This is nice work. the green is to die for. The lighting on the berries is just a little harsh, but may have been needed to attain the green. I love the dark black with the glass. Good Luck 9 Gotcha

There are so many great photos in this challenge but yours is my favorite. I like everything about it. The green liquid and light reflection in the glass, the twin berries (same size) , the angle. And the beauty of simplicity -- you got my 10! Joanns

The angle somehow seems wrong. Nice pic however. 7.

This is a nice shot... I think a vertical orientation may have worked out a little better :) I'm scoring this one an 8, but i'm concerned abou the little spot in the upper right corner. This makes me wonder if the background has been edited out. The reflection under the glass from the glass stem makes me think that this surface is reflective. It also looks like the camera flash was used to light this shot... this would have lit up a lot more of this surface.... - jmsetzler

I like your use of color. The green is a nice contrast to the red strawberries. I also like the use of the clear martini glass with the dark background!

I like the idea here...but the framing just blows it for me. Great lighting and colors. 8 Lisa

Very nice - love the colors, and the composition. I generally prefer "odd" numbers of things, but in this case there is a certain symmetry that carries through the reflections with the 2 strawberries. lhall-9
