Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: I'll echo what is already here...nothing looks focused. I do see that the label is focused, but your DOF gives the illusion that the total image is out of focus.

Lighting: Too harsh with a washed out background.

Composition/Content: The angle of your crop is uncomfortable.

My Opinion: Looking through your portfolio, there are some very strong, well-executed images there. You obviously know how the voters vote and you are very capable of producing strong images. I am at a loss trying to understand what you were after here.

I found the subject to be uninteresting photographically. Also when doing such a close-up, you need to be sure that the image is tack sharp, which this one isn't. Your exposure is fine, but the angle also seems a bit unattractive.

would be better if the entire bottle was in focus - nice try

Would prefer that more DOF; the cap seems to have no detail and the top line of the label is fuzzy.

90 degree left rotate doesn't work for me, nor does the focus. Although a good idea, another perspective would have made this work.

This is a tough subject to shoot since it has a black label and cap as well as reflective qualities.

Great product, but doesn't really work for the challenge.
