nice closeup...one of the better ones I've seen yet of a ring, I like the way you angled the ring, it doesn't overpower the photo, yet still looks interesting and clear.....good job.

A lovely photograph. I love the setting and the dof. The ring and the colours all blend in very well. The only hot spot is the white glare on the left of the image. Overall a lovely image, well done and gl in this weeks challenge.

The colors are very stimulating. I do wish there was something (possibly more clouds or slightly darker sky) along the right side below the tree. And I also have the same problem that my eyes are drawn to the stem of the glass, which takes away from the whole of the picture.

Originally posted by MarkS224: Ah beer. Not so Good: The perspective is not to my liking. My eye seem to be drawn to the base of the glass. The riling in the background is also distracting. Perhaps if you raised the table/base the glass is sitting on and raised the perspective a little...

Very nice contrasts in colors on this one. I love the way the cold beer (you know it's cold from the condensation) feels warm and fuzzy compared to the cool blues of the sea and sky.

The angle is very unique and helps to capture the reflection of the sun making it once again seem a warm and fuzzy feel. DOF may be just a touch off. The base of the glass seems a little soft on focus. Otherwise very nice DOF composition.

Oh one subtle flaw... The glass isn't centered on the coaster but very minor point

Hope it helps,
TC

Ah beer.

I love the subject. I like the intense colors, that blue cant be duplicated in science. The lighting is dead on, perfect highlights on the beer glass.The location must be heaven.

But why a beer in what looks like a tropical setting? How about a tropical drink?

Just my opinion, congrats on faidoi's P-O-D. Bet the beer was as good as the pic;)

I wish I were there. You made this pic look so inviting. I really like the angle you shot at. The beer looks refreshing, even though I don't like beer. Nice and foamy and you can see the sweat beading up on the side. Very nice.
