Greetings from the critique club :)
I don´t have much to say about this image so I´ll keep this short. I do like it and probably would have given it a 6 had I voted in the challenge. It´s pretty well lit and definately meets the challenge. I would maybe have included some backlighting from the right had I taken this photo but not neccesarily sure it would have turned out better. Painting with light is well done and suits the subject. All in all it´s pretty well done technically.
However, 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. Maybe a goldfish swimming in that beer? The grinch reaching for the peanuts? Also I think personally I would have voted this higher if the backround had been an out of focus bar table instead of black but that´s just me.
Kind regards from Iceland, Lárus. |

Great lighting and professionally done. Those nuts are really lively! Thanks for providing some light around the mug so it isn't floating in space, I appreciate that. I love the specular higlight that isn't overwhelming and the great modeling light. The only suggestion would be to perhaps include a background light just to give it a little more "classical" feel, but that is just a personal preference. Oh yea and those crumbs don't do anything for me :)

You could have had a very good picture here, but you have too much seperation between the drink and the peanuts. It's like there is two seperate pictures going on here. I think it would have had a lot more impact had you put the bowl right next to the glass and maybe had the lose peanuts around the base of the glass. This would have given a connection between the two objects. I think it's croped a bit tight on the left side as well.
Lighting is good as is color and focus. I could have gone a 9 or even a 10 had it been placed just a little bit better. |
