Great all around photo. The atmosphere is perfect and the idea is wonderful. I'm not sure you need the strange angle with the composition. That is slightly distracting to me.
I am not sure that Hemingway would have been drinking San Pellegrino sparkling mineral water...it would have been whisky or something else like that...but nice shot and interesting perspective
a very nice hemingwayesque feel to this shot...the only thing i can think that would make it more accurate, is if you were to have substituted the water for a bottle of whiskey. :)
