This is a winner. Now I want to go make a cup for myself.
Good luck with your new adventure. I think you will come out way ahead if you truly want to stick with it.
I agree with Melethia about getting rid of the warning label.

I personally like the high key look of this and the way the sides of the tube "disappear" into the background. But when you shoot stuff like this, try to take more than one exposure - shoot at least three so you can have several options to work with.

I loved this photo in the challenge, I gave it a 10. So wonderfully creative, and you caused such a sweet scandal!

The only suggestion I have is if this is to be a real shot (or in any other similar ones) is to clone out the "Best by" date info stuff. Otherwise, very clean, and seems it would be easy to extract and use with another picture (as ad shots often are.)

Not sure what your ISO is but it's looking grainy. Make sure you are on ISO 100 and shoot this using a tripod.

lighting is off and the BG needs to be fixed. Remove the wrinkles and add more light. You can also add more light behind the sheet to make it glow more.

Okay well I know that you really don't want your product blending in with your BG. Just so you can remove it and place it somewhere else. Like for this image I would put it in front of a couple of snowboarders or something like that. To make it easy to extract use a Green background or a bright white.

I have a nephew who shares the name. This is a darling photograph. The pickier types would claim it's OOF and blown on the left - both may be true - but in my opinion neither detracts from this, and in fact the soft focus adds. It's the expression you captured that matters most.

This is a beautiful shot, but the vignette needs a bit more opactity - right now it's so dark that my eye goes to the vignette instead of the centre where the deer's eyes are. Also, I think it needs a boost in contrast - it's a bit muddy. One thing for all DP Challenges, since the size 640 pixels means you have to size down your image you're going to lose sharpening. This alwys happens when you size down... If you're using PHotoshop, the best tool is unsharp mask. However, any kind of overall sharpening would help a little. I'm finding the highlights in this need a bit of a boost as well.

I like the duotone. The image feel a little soft and I would have liked a subtler vignette. I really like the pose you caught with just the head of the second deer passing by.
