greetings from the critique club!
You should be proud of your "technicals" on this shot because they're perfect and they're the only reason you scored as high as you did. I consider the ripping of the can part of your technicals: it creates a curved more interesting surface for catching highlights. But there's no other reason for it. It doesn't convey "pop" in any way, unless you think the can popped or somesuch? The only thing you have conveying "pop" is a can of Coca-Cola, the single best known brand in the world, so it does meet the challenge but not in an original way. There were lots of Coca-Colas in this challenge, as I knew there would be.
The free space on the top serves no purpose. I just made a funny realization. I notice how often DPCers leave blank space in photographs, and now I think it is because they are emulating advertisements. But the only reason advertising photos leave blank space is for text!
