More advertising than journalism. Well done, though!

Looks more like advertising that photojournalism. Not a bad pic really, The reflection in the sunglasses is not good. Were he facing the sun more you could get away with it. Without the glasses would've yielded a better pic just because there would be no reflecion of the flash. - Inspzil

Comment by PTLParsons:
Advertisement! I love the shot. Biggest problem - can't read which beer is the king of beers. In advertisement that's very important. Maybe zoomed in some and did away with more of the side and we could read the beer brand. As a photo it is beautiful. As an advertisement it falls short. But the photo is A1 in itself. But I must score it as a total unit. PTL5

more of an advertising shot than photojournalism, doesn't really nail the challenge I'm afraid... nice use of fill-in lflash though. 6 marksimms

Nice job centering the beer under the sun, but how is this journalism? 5

The exposure on this is awsome considering that it is backlight with the sun. Nice work. I almost think the pose would seem more natural though if he were holding the bottle with one hand instead of two. Of course, you may not have wanted natural! Nice colors as well. karmat

An advertisement for beer maybe, but not for this challenge. Next time instead of flash try a reflector and use the sun to light the face..

I think this misses the theme a bit. Sure there are advertisments in journals, magazines and newspapers but the photo should be representative of what you'd find in the actual articles/cover of the magazine/newspaper.
