 I like this photo much better as a black & white versus color, however, decided to go against personal taste for the challenge. I'm also not too certain it fits, "cliche" but I've seen a number of wine glass / milk bottles lately, and decided for the martini w/a splash. Beats a dog picture in my mind.

Nice capture of water motion. Photo is a little dark - would prefer to see more contrast between the glass's stem and the background.

really nice shot and composition ... i kinda wish the stem and base of the glass was a little stronger ... but it's a great shot regardless

Nice color. Crystal clear pic too. I don't know if I like the big splash. Great shot of it though - Inspzil

It's cool but, you need more light on it. Should have shinned two lights from the sides to capture the splash better. It's also leaning to the right. :)

Nice splash. A tad bit on the dark side and would prefer that the splash wasn't cropped quite so close.

Nice capture but I find the lighting is not quite right. Also the background above the glass is distracting.

Good picture, very creative.

Wow, this is really cool. And a good clique as well. I think maybe a little more lighting could give more of an effect to the photo. Good job.

Nice, clear image. Water splashing in a glass is an image that is seen a lot. Good job.
