Yum. Looks tasty.

Using bright field lighting would help to make the glass stand out from the background better.

Fun take on the challenge. Hope you enjoyed the brews afterwards. :-) Photo-wise for me it's "ok". Not rushing to ask for a print, but not throwing it in the under 4 vote pile either. Good luck.

Cheers!

Well done product shot. Only real critique I have is I would have liked to seen the background blown out to a complete white instead of the light gray.

Comment by RyanW:
i commented on my other 9 vote given to a gun/flower image my thoughts about the idea of peace coming out of the disarming of ourselves and think that it is equally true in this image, and can be easily transitioned to applying that mentality to "how we arm our children to deal with the world".
teaching our youth that guns are the key will not promote peace, but teaching our children the right and wrong times to arm one-self (with whatever weapon) is one of the most important things a parent can do.

there is a lot of symbolism that can be taken from this image (water to give life to plants, peace coming from disarming, no peace without protection, peace prospering out of the remnants of war....there are many many more) and I hope that is not lost on people (not just voters here, but on our species as a collective whole, because if it is, we won't be around for much longer.

I have that same one! Unfortunately, my brother had a bigger one, and in water guns, bigger is better.
