| Greetings from the Critique Club! 
 I think this is a very sweet photo.  Glasses of course are quite fragile, as are bubbles, so a good combo of the two. The settings are fine for this shot.
 
 However, dpc voters tend to dislike glare, and there really isn't much compostion.  Image has a snapshot feel to it, which is why you have no comments (albeit a critique, now, and that you finished so low.  Mind, you did get 3 10s.
 
 I empathize because I can see what you wanted to do with this shot, and given the nature of the challenge that can be quite tough to do.  My advice, as always: keep shooting.  That really is the only way to improve.  Second piece of advice: feel free to look at the early stuff I shot 3 years ago, when I first joined the site with a crappy little p&s.  They'll not only make you feel better and hopefully encourage you to keep trying :-)
 
 Feel free to PM me with any questions,
 
 Susan
