Coke Classic....aaahhhhh

If I make it through even half the photos in this challenge I'm probably going to be really sick of the person-drinking theme. Luckily for you I'm not YET but it's not the world's most original interpretation as I'm sure you're aware.

Inasmuch as the shot goes... I like the focus, the shot is very crisp on the bottle and the face. Side view is reasonable; a slight angle might have been a little nicer. The kid looks to not be drinking but rather just holding the bottle for the shot -- some of that is how flat the soda looks, some is just placement of both hands and lips. I don't know if that's the case or just the impression.

This liquid does not like to mix with water

Shots of the refraction of oil on water... if so that's a little iffy on the challenge topic but I suppose something+water is not the same as just water.

I don't at all care for that bright green colour, something else would have been preferable. Too bad you couldn't get the iridiscent effect. The bright spots (light reflections, I assume) are a little distracting.

A different coloured backdrop would have highlighted the glass and contents more but I think I kind of like the close match between it and the foam; you've got a nice shades-of-yellow/brown going on here, although the table (pine, I'd guess) is a little bright in that case. Not as dramatic as the other Guinness shot I've seen so far but I like the slowly rising foam effect.

Tea, not coffee? Or just a fairly light brew of cofee?

I think w/o the bubbles would have been more interesting as more of the swirl could have been seen then. I like the framing of the shot, and the border is thankfully very inobtrusive.

Hmm, well, my only real problem with this is it's been done so often that it's lost some of its interest to me. I like the choice of purple for your contrast. There's a kinda neat planetary thing going on here that may or may not be intentional, but does help a bit to counteract that "seen it" reaction.

Sapphire & Sprite

Not a drink I would mix, I must admit.

I like this concept, and the composition with the reflection. I think there's a bit too much glare off the front of the glass, particularly on the stem. The focal point is interestingly centered but I think it fades into foreground blur a little too quickly; the base of the glass is much blurrier than I would have expected given an eye's view of this, for instance.

Oiled

Hmm, the oil is hard to see and that detracts a bit from the topic-meeting aspect. Good shot of the gears and the thingie, I have no idea what this in specific but it's obvious machinery so a natural setting for the oil.

Very overly grainy. Interesting setup and idea and placement of elements.

Transfusion

I presume that's cider, then.

I like the idea overall. I like the condensation being not only on the glass but on the straw, but I think I would have preferred it not be on the apple. Using the straw container as the stand for the apple is a nice touch.

Kinda blurry, even on the plane, which detracts from the shot in general.
