Bouquet,Bokeh.......we hope the pun is clear.

It's been raining and the temp has been hovering just above freezing for the last 9 days. Our subject matter is really limited.......Here's an idea, lets get some wine, take our clothes off and see what happens:)

image seems very dark to me ... white on the bottle sticker is only 50% grey ... and focus on the wrong subject ;-)

interesting take on the challenge. i love the mood you've created, but somehow, it feels a little flat, lacking warmth. i also think the bottle could have been a big closer to the glass, and that the top of the bottle is a bit too close to the top of the frame. you have done good work here, but, taking advantage of advanced editing rules can make whole point differences in these challenges. i like the leg showing through the glass, but don't like all the other distracting reflections in the glass. it took a while for the glass beside the model to register with me; maybe a 1/3 to a 1/2 f-stop adjustment would have allowed the same background effect, but have brought her glass into the image a bit more. cheers to taking a risk! good luck!

Nice idea, but overall image is too dark. Also, the bokeh is practically non existent since the background is all black. As such, it doesn't quite meet the challenge requirements as I interpreted them. Please tell your model that she is HOT!

A little dark, but good concept.

Much too dark in my opinion. I can understand the idea of darkness for the background to add a little enigma but think the foreground would definitely benefit from some light.

great idea, very bad lighting but it is Bokeh...

I don't know what you were going for, but I think the model needs more light on her. And the bottle blends in with the background. A different lighting setup would have improved this...
