Very nice composition, but it's a silhouette.

This photo is a bit too bland for my taste. Then again, you can't control the sky. Good idea.

You're probably going for the "artsy" thing (see recent threads). I wish the sky weren't so bland. I don't see any connection to the theme but I'm thinking you already know that most viewers won't get it. The picture breaks most of the "rules" which is fine, but at the end of the day, there's not much here IMHO.

Maybe this should be in "Advertising" instead of "Extraordinary." It would probably score a lot higher there. Nice use of DoF - placing the emphasis on the beer.

Improve it by: a) Waiting for a better sky - the top 1/4 of your image is a bald white sky. If there is no better sky - crop it out. b) Use a more photogenic beer glass. c) More side light on the glass instead of the straight on lighting (flash?) that produced the hasrh glare.

perhaps if you were extraordinarily smashed. the beer is blown out by your fill flash. which is ok, except the rest is overexposed too. concept is nice, the execution makes me wonder a bit. nice horses. :)
