Bourbon and a branch...JR's favoriteby
groundbeefComment by HBunch: *Critique Club*
I had a nice long crit on this and the site timed out on me, so he we go again...
Focus and clarity seem good on the glass and liquid. I think the detail there is good. I would like to see a little more detail in the plant and I think that would require some extra lighting in the leaves. The leaves seem a little dark.
Is that a branch or a stem? Oh well, close enough.
I like the lighting on the background. I like how it's bright at the top and creates some neat shadow at the bottom. I think though that the leaves are a bit dark and detail suffers a bit from that.
I think that the way you have it right in the center works ok, but would be interesting to see other angles to see if there could be a better one. not really sure with the subject if a different angle would work, but maybe a different crop? Would have to see it to determine it if helped or hurt the photo.
The subject is definately different. Not really something I'd hang in my livingroom, but I could see where some people would...so I think you have something there.
Technically a good photo.
