Critique Club critique:

COMPOSITION/CONTENT: Excellent composition and use of light. The bottle is not only full of bubbles but also full of light. The red light around the blue bottle creates a very nice contrast and the simple shapes make the photo very interesting.
BACKGROUND: The black background adds to the richness of the light shapes.
CAMERA WORK: Exposure and focus are just right giving the picture good contrast.
DIGITAL PROCESSING/TECHNICAL: good saturation of colors.
MY OPINION: I think the reason some for the comments about the red circle around the bottle are because the red light is assymetrical and of different quality and texture than the smooth and symmetrical bottle. If you left out the red light and zoomed in on the bottle I would have liked it also, but I like it better the way you did it. You might have started something here by your creative use of light. Great job!

A shot like this begs you to stare at the center object -- and when I do, I see the reflection of the photographer. Without much experience on things like these, I'm not sure how to tell you to fix it. The composition is a very good idea, though -- with the yellow on yellow. I'd prefer to have the object perfectly centered in the background (right now, it's low and maybe slightly to the left).

Comment by Manic:
The circular markings / highlights on the paper are a good continuation of the circles of the central object, but it really needs a bit more contrast to make them stand out. A squarer crop might also help here.

This one is kind of wierd looking, I like it. The glare on the thing is distracting.

really cool and creative.. great use of negative space! turning the brightness down a tad so the color is richer might make it even better

What a great composition! However the image seems a bit streched to me, also I think it would have worked better in horizontal composition.

Interesting. I think that you may have too much light on the eyeball. The reflection might need to be softer. The position of the eye on the page works, as well as the ripple around it. Sharpness is good.
