Greetings from the Critique Club

My comments here are unbiased and are meant as constructive criticisms ;) Now on to the show:

First off, as a thumbnail, the image grabs my attention. That's a great thing in a field of many. Let your thumbnail stand out so people seek it out. However, much to my disappointment, the full size image didn't necessarily have the same punch as the thumbnail. The champagne label looks like it's floating simply due to the lighting. The edge of the bottle isn't clear so there is no grounding the label. The use of lingerie is nice and alluring but lingerie are meant to be soft and seductive. I would suggest draping it as opposed to just putting a glass over it.

the red has a nice powerful punch to it which I like very much. The element in this photo has a great concept behind it but just lacked a bit in execution. I know you'll do better next time.

Light and detail is the key to make your audience stop and let the image sink in. As always, these are just my personal opinions on this image. Please take it with a grain of salt. We are all out here to learn ;)

Keep on shooting and continue to learn from the folks in our group!

Cheers!

Rikki

Nice pic, would have been better to display sin if you had some rohypnol sitting by the glass or something. Standard sex isn't really that sinful. 4
