Odd placement of items. Alcohol + Sun = Sick. :) Also, are you selling the Skyy or the Lejon?

I liked your concept but not your lighting it was abit dark
05/09/2002 03:24:00 PM
ok, get it now - on the rocks of course! - I'm a bit slow :>)

Nice shot, and good set-up. Cropping the dark side of the rock/ledge from bottom would have made it better to me.

excellent idea but dont really like both bottles in the shot. great use of lighting and glassware.
05/09/2002 02:34:00 PM
Nice setting. I like the sunlight on the Skyy bottle.
05/08/2002 09:00:00 PM
should have shown the entire name
05/08/2002 01:25:00 PM
It's a good idea but I think it could have been executed better. It's difficult to read the Skyy bottle and I think the arrangement could be improved.

not sure I really like the martini glass tilted, and the Skyy bottle seems a bit too dark to me.

Great idea for a photo - It would have been nice to see a little bit more of the vodka bottle. It's a bit hard to read. Nice set up though.
05/07/2002 11:35:00 PM
sky bottle is bit underexposed/ under lit
05/07/2002 05:48:00 PM
Wonderful choice of background and lighting...
05/07/2002 04:15:00 PM
Love the DRY background. And nice contrast of blue bottle and white label. Nicely done.
05/07/2002 06:31:00 AM
shaken not stirred I hop
nice setup though I think the blue bottle distracts as theres not enough detail on it
05/07/2002 06:29:00 AM
Title is way too long.
05/06/2002 10:41:00 PM
I like the subject and clarity, but the sunlight seems to wash this out a bit, however, it does make some nice sparkles in the glasses
05/06/2002 07:00:00 PM
Can't read the Sky bottle and the vermouth label has a big shadow.
05/06/2002 05:30:00 PM
i think this pic. would have been more appealing under an indoor setting ... distracted by the surroundings.
05/06/2002 03:06:00 PM
The natural background and environment is tough to shoot on without artificial lighting sources. The sky vodka is too dark and the tilted glass is a bit distracting.
05/06/2002 01:57:00 PM
Very nive photo but I don`t like olives.
05/06/2002 01:42:00 PM
Better than most boozer adverts! The SKYY bottle could be more clearly displayed, or at least I would hope so. Photo 9 Advert 8 Creativity 9 total 9

The idea is on the right track. The image itself could be improved with better lighting, more diffuse. Also if you put a thin mirror behind the bottle and shine light into it at an angle you can effectively light the bottle from behind.

I almost love this shot. The blue bottle is lost because of the light. I do love the natural light here. Also the glass in titlted which could of been okay with a different background. Good job all the same. LEJON is in nice focus.
P.S. cute title too.
05/06/2002 10:18:00 AM
too dark
05/06/2002 10:15:00 AM
This is a nicely composed photo... I like it! The lighting is just a *tad* harsh... the label on the Skyy bottle is a little hard to distinguish... good job!
05/06/2002 07:27:00 AM
your camera metered for the brightness of the scene, therefore rendering the objects of interest overly dark.
05/06/2002 12:06:00 AM
the "SKYY" label looks a bit washed out.
