Great job! Have an extra chair? I went back and forth on how I wanted to score this one. Although it's pretty straight forward, not alot of fancy techniques showing through this one, I loved the clarity in it, the foreground has great use of color and technical merit. The distant part of the photo has great use of color. I originally was only giving this a 6 because it didn't compare with some of the 'fancier' shots out there in this challenge, but I'm raising my score, giving it a final 9 because there is something to be said for being straightforward, being simple, and meeting the challenge PERFECTLY. What some people failed to realize in this challenge, is that a water pic or a shoreline pic does not always make a beach theme. Your photo truly does that, in it's most simple and whimsical form.

Neat idea for a beer commercial! The perspective is interesting, but I go back and forth about whether I really like the shot. Maybe it's the color of the chair ...

Quite a big pool you have there.

Good setting, I like it.

A little less arm would be better. I think it takes up too much of the photo. Clarity and colours of photo are well done.

Great perspective on this one. The picture is fantasic. The only thing that bugged me a little was the bottle cap being posed. If think this picture would have been better off with a more natural pose for the bottle cap and maybe having the bottle just slightly rotated, but still showing the cool label. Good shot nonetheless.

Local beer advertisement?
07/19/2006 05:02:19 AM
I want to be there! that beer looks amazing! I like the shot...perhaps the composition makes the arm look a little large, but a great beach shot, well done
