LuguerComment by LalliSig: Greetings from the critique club :)
Well I just gave a critique on a very similar picture, (the one in the 26th place) and I can almost copy paste the comment I gave him, but first off, welcome to DPC and this is a nice way to start your career here, I did pretty much the same when I joined, scored a 6.1 something I think so keep at it.
It´s a nice shot, well done and I would probably have given it a 6 had I voted in the challenge. It´s pretty well lit and definately meets the challenge. All in all it´s pretty well done technically. I would probably have used something else than water in that glass, probably white wine and waited till it was not so misty, I think that mist on the glass is not really to my taste. If you wanted to give off the impression that the water is Ice cold, I would rather have suggested you just put an ice cube in the glass and water droplets on the outside, that would have done the job more pleasing to at least my eye.
I am not really surprised it didn´t score better, while well done there isn´t really anything that pops out from this picture, kindof mostly lacks that "wow" factor and I don´t know what that could have been. Something odd in or on the objects in the photo would probably have done the trick, like a worm coming out of one of the apples or a shark swimming in the glass (printing out one of course so it would fit, hehe) . Also I think personally I would have voted this higher if the backround had been an out of focus restaurant table instead of black but that´s just me.
Kind regards from Iceland, Lárus.
