Coming back to this, I think I have to agree with OldBimmer, it's not the scene that I found to be distracting, I kind of like the environment, it's that the border is encroaching on the space, especially with how cropped the scene is already. -- and I still like the pose, and the smidge of detail visible.

Woot! Party on!

between the beverage and the blues, I totally thought this was in a refrigerator for some reason.

this is so graphic, and perfect in almost every way. I wish you didn't include the moon, it would be such a gorgeous photo without it. I would adjust the levels just a tad to get a bit brighter exposure, if I'm not directly lined up with my monitor at just the right angle, it gets a bit washed away. (or in response you can simply say "get a better monitor" -- which would also be true)
