Background is distracting.

7 - almost an 8... deliberated for a while but the image seems just a little flat tonally (best way I can describe it) and it was enough to drop it from an 8 to a 7. Composition is good though - has potential.

Thanks for the comments! It's really helpful to hear people's opinions. I'm only just starting to learn about photography - only got my camera in December, so the lighting worked out quite lucky without much of a setup. I set the glasses up in my husband's open guitar case to use as a black background. I drew the study curtains closed and closed some doors that were adding in too much light. Took a number of shots to see how light or dark it was, and increased my ISO to 400 to allow for a brighter picture. Made a few adjustments in PS and this was the result. Must say, I'm very happy with my best score so far! :-) Looking forward to learning lots more!

I tried it myself. i came up with reflections all over the glass. so how do you come up with wonderful lighting? i'd like to ask for your light setup in your photographer's notes. 6 btw.
