"Jell-O Martini with Peanut Butter Olive" is a nice addition into the Pick Two challenge. I remeber flipping through the challenge and looking at your shot and thinking what a perfectly shaped peanut butter olive. The smoothness you were able to make it pretty awesome in itself.

The image itself is very attention grabbing, pretty much the colors demand your attention. I don't know if I would have scored it higher with a white background but I can see how many voters probably would have preferred the white background (just based on past challenges). I kind of liked the muted feel, where nothing is too flash like a lot of martini shots are; it feels very appropriate for the subject. Also I am glad you don't have any flash spots on the glass. I am surprised you did not center the shot or place it more off centered, it just feels right in between. Overall the shot was interesting and the olive really demanded attention. Good work!
