Date Uploaded: Oct 1, 2006

 A can of Coors beer dropped into a large metal pan filled with water, couldn't get rid of the reflections on water in Basic editing, so there they are...had to do major crop because the pan was a little small and the rim was intruding on the image, there is still some of rim visible in top left corner; but couldn't crop any closer or it would be a disaster...levels, curves, selective color: black, to attempt to hide that pan rim, usm, brightness/contrast, crop.

I like shots like this. They remind me of billboard ads. Afew blown highlights distract from the product that is nicely presented. Negative space works well for text, but focus needs to be sharper.

If I didn't think beer was disgusting, this photo would make me thirsty. :-) I love the way the liquid looks so in motion. Great job.

Clean, simple...looks refreshing, although not much of it looks well focused. I think the focal point is underwater, making it comes out softer? Hmmm...just some observations. Good luck in the challenge.

Could be more focused, a little grainy. Colours are great and looks like a real ad.
