OneSweetSinComment: From the critique club:
There is too much ambiguity in this picture. It seems that you rushed or where very pressed for time because the basic requirements were ignored. Allow me to offer a few pointers.
Advertising are the hardest compositions to make. They are tedious to photograph because they require so much preparation. Be careful of introducing other elements. If you use a model, you complicate your life even more. The model must be dressed and now you need to capture the right expression. In this case, this attractive model was not ready for this promotion.
The sign in the back makes the viewer go to his face and then down the picture, but while the orange T shirt, adds color, the viewer has to pause and decipher it. Now the eye is at the pitcher and one wonders of this an ad for Smuckers and one relooks at the sign again.
In short, I note you have the capability to compose a shot, and yes, I know, sometimes ideas strike at the last minute. When they do, consider the time factor. If you are too pressed against the wall, it is best to forget it. Too late.
Do not feel too bad, all photographers experience similar situations. They proceed well knowing that important considerations will suffer. Just go and make your next challenge a winner.
