 A tomato, a straw and one of our new wine glasses.

I liked the colour of these wine glasses and thought it would create a good refraction image. The straw was included to create the effect and the tomato to impact with the blue glass.

I know that the liquid is not parallel with the top of the glass. My desk is obviously not horizontal..

I will probably get messages that this is a well tried theme. I know this but I still think it looks good, and for me works as an album cover.

Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Nice focus and crisp colors. I do see some strange aberrations where the red and the blue meet up.

Lighting: Nice, even lighting. Your white background also works very well with this one.

Composition/Content: I also noticed the tilt, but I like that you chose to keep the waterline horizontal rather than the glass. It almost makes me want to see it tilted even more. I think that it would better fit the 'band' idea.

My Opinion: 5.6 is a pretty strong score for what you captured here. It serves better as a still life than something that makes me think album cover.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

I like the feel of this, very clean shot, saturation is about right, good use of text.

The distortion is interesting here. The text slightly imbalances the presentation but I like the font used.
