Drink DNMC Beer - and the "Brown" is your's!

I wonder if this will get the most comments award for the challenge? :D A clever take on the challenge and an interesting image to look at as well. I think what makes it work (besides being clever) is the use of foreground and background subjects to tie it together visually for the viewer. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Orange Burst

Certainly sends an 'Orange' message. Clean, well focusued and overall appealing. Trying to figure out the distortion on the top right of the can. It looks like the can is under two separate layers of water. I'll have to revisit after the challenge...hopefully you've told a little bit about how this was done. :D Good luck in the challenge.

Jax Beach...

Seems like a lot to look at and the beer bottle isn't providing that much impact. What might have been cool is to come in a little tighter, move the bottle to the right some, and get more of the people in the background in the water and on the beach. JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

How much Woodchuck do your Ducks chuck?

Comment:
Cute, kinda. I think you have too many props (ducks) with what should be the main subject. The background was white? If yes, a color temp adjustment needs to be made as it came out quite warm (yellow/red tones). Good luck in the challenge.

Orange Cream Dream

Potential here. Lighting is a little harsh on the left and the can doesn't come across as being sharply focused (I think it's the glare making the can look blurry/non-focused). The drippy thing up top seems to be part of the story but I'm not sure what it is. Is it related to the box in the back?

Look at you.. aren't you glad we used a stunt double?

I can't make out what's in the background and I think it's a substantial part of your message here based on your title.

Red-dy for THE taste ?

Comment:
Something about the color combination here that weakens the initial impact. I think the yellow background is competing too strongly with the red for attention and the green is getting a back seat when the lime slice should be front and center. Did you look at it with a white background, even a royal blue maybe? Just a thought. I like the way you've put this together. The scale and layout is very good. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

This works well as an advertisement. Comes across as cool and refreshing. Put this on a billboard on a hot day and I'd be looking for one. :D Well done. Good luck in the challenge.

Sometimes One Just Isn't Enough

Nice concept. Hard to pull this off with straws the length as they are because they fall out of the focal plane (ends of the straws aren't in focus). A pair of scissors or a taller glass would have helped. Your choice of subject positioning is good overall and the straws do create a nice slightly horizontal line lead-in to the glass. Good luck in the challenge.

It's the Real Thing

You did a nice job putting this together overall compositionally. The background seam in the lower left is an unfortunate distraction. The image could stand to be rotated clockwise a little (couple degrees) - the coke bottle should be straight vertically. Very close here. Attention to the details can make or break an image sometimes, especially DPChallenge entries! :D Good luck in the challenge.
