 Photographer’s Notes
The hardest thing for me was to figure out what to advertise. Cars? Makeup? Jewelry? Electronics? All have possibilities, but I have no studio, no models, no product, no … no … no …
So maybe this will work and be interesting. Now if I can find a title that works.

Lots of fun distortion and nice colors. Not sure it makes me want to buy or drink it, but it's interesting.

Very nice. I love the tension you can see in the gin (or water?). Would have loved to have seen a slightly wider crop, just enough to get the bottle neck in. Well executed though, I like that you can see the rest of the brand name through the liquid.

Really nice shot. Great angle, colours, DoF, all of it really : )

And a nice drink as well - especially in a glass that size :- )

Nice work here. I like the tilt and that the product is prominant.A little more negative space on the left or right would help place text.

I like the tilted composition in this and the contrasting colors. However, what I'm thinking should be white looks a bit pinkish on this screen. And, all those reflections really steal from the effect, though I know they would be a bear to eliminate

Beatiful picture. I really like how the glass and... liquid? distorted the bottle. I also like how you used all the space in your photograph.

I like how the glass fits into the corner.

Other than attracting the short attention span of toddlers, this picture really has no attractive value.
