I don't drink milk but I like chesse. Especially with chili. As you also can probably tell I like beer too. I tried this shot without the fridge light on and just my halogen light but went with it on as I think it nicely back lit the photo.

Hilarious shot. The bachelor's fridge!

This is a great story picture. How could we improve it?

Mostly, I think the lighting is a bit too harsh and glarey. You need to soften the light a bit. But how? Shine through tissue paper. OR point the light away at something white and reflective like a piece of paper so it bounces back.

Maybe also arrange the cheese so it's more clearly cheese? Try a brick?

I just realized that it's a bag of cheese! This looks like my fridge, which is the funny part.

Very creative. Obviously a bachelor as I'm sure the wife would never let this happen!! Really good color. I'm not sure that the reflection at the top adds anything and may have been cropped out.

The reflection on the top is distracting. I do like your idea.

Oh, I see, it's inside a fridge. Not a very interesting photo. Actually, there is one thing I like about it... the DOF you used makes that bottle in the back on the right really nice and soft. The composition is good in that it supports the idea in the photo and the title well.

I think this would have been a good shot without the reflections at the top. Looks like someone might be on a liquid diet, ha.

I get it. There's not much room in the fridge cause of all the beer. Took me a minute, but I get it. Pretty funny too. very nice focus and clarity. great color and lighting was nice for the shot as well. The dairy is a small part of the photo, but no one said it had to be the MAIN subject. Good angle and framing/cropping. I like the reflections on the ceiling. Good luck in the challenge.

a little too outside of the box...why is this interesting to you

Great colors in this shot. This is a super idea that could've been capitalized on a lot better. I would've expanded it some. Maybe have the whole top shelf nothing but beer bottles except one little pint size milk carton or something like that. - inspzil

a milk bottle squeezed in would have been better, this looks like a packet of potatoe chips or duritos.
