I love the lighting on the background, but I wish there was just a bit more lighting up the soup itself. That part of the shot is a bit dark, but overall, I like the symmetrical compsotion and the inclusion of negative space. well done.

This is a great photo. It looks like an ad in a magazine. The colors and lighting are wonderful and I love the cropping. Very nice.

I like your choice of topic and the basic setup of the soup/bowl/spoon, but there's far too much negative space here; a tighter focus on the bowl would have been preferable.

Too much empty space at the top, otherwise a really nice photo. Subject is centered, could do more with a different composition.

Good composition, not sure about lighting, I think the shadow on top of the soup is a little distracting but gives depth to the pic.

This would be greatly improved with a tighter shot of the bowl of soup, because you have all the elements you would need to tighten it and still have a good photo.

For a bowl of, say, tomato-banana soup, presented like this on the menu, if service and ambience could match the immaculate attention and care of the photographer... I'd be obliged to pay dearly and tip genourously.

Given the 'emotive' limits set by the challenge, I vote in the same spirit.

Beautifully clear photo with good focus and I like the way the foreground fades into the background. I just wish there was more of an interesting background to look at as there is so much empty space in the top half of the image. In addition, I find the red of the tomato soup to be lacking pizzazz. Maybe a spot light on the soup alone would have brought that out some more or some increased saturation in an image editor. Well done.

nice arrangement

I like the fade from the white top to the more warm tinted bottom, how did you do that so well? Simple image yet very effective, nice job.

Classy shot. Nice choice of subject. Great background and lighting. I love the white in the top half. 9

great composition

This image is just so... pretty! The composition, with all that white space, is very unusual. But it WORKS because of the symmetry and formality of the subject!

It doesn't exactly scream "liquid" to me, but it definitely meets the challenge requirements and leaves an impression, in a positive way.

Fab composition, simple and elegant, great lighting.

I love the background color. I think it might look better w/ a bit less space at the top.

Nice & simple...good job...
I would like it better if it was a close up shot...just my preference...

At first, I didn't like the fact that the white background goes from brighter ot darker from the top of the image to the bottom. But the more I look at it, the more I like it. Good job. :)

Arguably, it's not the most exciting of topics, but I like this a lot. It's refreshing to see a nice, simple shot. It easily looks like something that could be used in an ad of some type.

Not sure I like the huge expanse of nothing above the image - might be great for an ad logo or somethng to sit on but seems otherwise pointless here.

Nice minimalism and the lighting works...everywhere except on the bowl, which I think is a little dark. Good work.
