Good one, like the lighting. should send this to Pepsi and Coca Cola. Coca Cola just layed off my father, I'd love to send them this.

I like your idea here a lot but not the presentation. I think the lighting from underneath can be effective, but here it's just making the overall light levels very uneven. The fabric at the top of the frame and the top of the can and glass are very dark - especially on the glass where it is important to read the Coke logo to get the joke. I think you could have had the objects arranged better too, placing them so that they interact more rather than just standing beside one another.

very nicely composed. Kind of subtle too, which I like.

LOL! Excellent capture of the challenge! More even lighting would have gotten you a 10 from me!

This actually happens often you know! Not only with Pepsi and Coke but also with beer brands. In my local it does anyway. But the idea is very good, and the photo is well done. The tight crop at the top of the glass is not negative either.
