wow now that's some crip granuals. Unfortunatly beyond that the imagehas little appeal to me. The green does not look enticing ther are not many lines or anything else for the eye to enjoy. You have one big POW!! then nothing. Good image that lacks long term appeal IMO. But technicaly a very nice shot.

Feels a touch dark but excellent composition - the close crop works very well.

Great colors, beautiful contrasts and good DOF. I'm just not too sure about the cropping. Still a good one for this challenge.

Very nice cloeup of the salt on the glass. I like the cropping and the sharpness of the forground. The backlighting brings out the crystals. Very nice and should finish in the top ten.

Nice macro of the crystals. Good white balance too.

Nice color and reflection. It almost looks like a crown fit for a queen. Crystals are also well defined in the foreground.

This is my favorite margarita shot in the challenge. The macro is good, the texture of the salt is interesting, and I like the shallow dof.

Crystal clear! Great lights, great focus and clarity. Good composition!! I really like this shot quite a bit :-) Good work making the grains of salt the subject in this shot.

this one's nice, love the green color
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Well done. I think if you would have cropped it loose enough for the entire rim of the drink to be in focus it would have been just as strong, but it is your pic and one of the best.

8 YUM! love the light here.

I tried to give you a comment earlier, but I don't think it went through. I like the composition and good job with the black background. The focus is good. This looks oversharpened to me, though, and the contents of the glass look like floating eyeballs in sewage... what is that stuff?
