Just keep coming back to this image for some reason. The serenity of the scene so disrupted by the strength of the bottle added to the detail of the moss, hard lines of the rocks, softness of the water...a great combination done well within proportion. Excellent work Jimmy!
Post actions
Congrats on the ribbon! A creative idea and a very nice shot indeed.

Jimmy...way to go! Is this "Blue Ribbon Beer"? In any case, it is a wonderful photo! I think a little less of the rock on the left would suit my tastes better, but the colors and smooth waters just make this shot.
Post actions

Congratulations Jimmy! Excellent shot! Very well done! It is about time the others started recognizing your talent. Very well deserved in my opinion. I didn't vote this challenge, but after perusing the entries I think the right image landed the blue. Excellent exposure, perfect composition, perfect combination of title, concept, photograph. Extremely well executed! Would have been a solid 10 from me. Again, congrats, you deserve it!Message edited by author 2006-10-11 16:55:36.

Very nice. I would have like to see it just a little darker but that's just me... Great job!
Post actions
its almost mistical. i love it.
Post actions
Very pretty. Short pallette of golds and greens keeps attention on the product despite its relatively small size.
Post actions
Perfect composition. Just a tad too green for my eye.
Post actions
Post actions
I love the concept of this one. A bit more crop to focus more on the product would have really brought it out better. It is the product you are selling, not the background. 8
Post actions
Wow, this image makes me WANT to buy a Corona. Well done!
Post actions
The time lapse and NI here are great.
Post actions
i like the setting, slow shutter speed and general color tone. my TOP pick so far. 10 from me.
Post actions
Lovely. Very well done and one of the few that actually look like an ad. Back to bump to 8.
Post actions
A slow shutter speed and a narrow depth of field,work well in this shot,Im off for a drink,well done
Post actions
i was thinking of something just like this....WOW and you did it! great job! 10
Post actions
Cool, smooth and refreshing ad. Tighter crop for better product display would get this a 10. Comp is great and would allow great latitude in text placement. 8
Post actions
Simple, straight-forward message with this well done (technically and visually) image. Heck, even your title works! :D Hope it was still cold and tasty after you finished taking this photo! Good luck in the challenge.
Post actions
I think this could really work in as a real advertisement. It would maybe works better with an open bottle.
Post actions
Thats really well done.
Post actions
Post actions
Very well executed! Wish I had thought of something like this -- this half tempts me to try something like this for kicks! - 10
Post actions
Very cool! Love it, love it! What a backdrop/composition...!Take a 10 from me
Post actions
Excellent capture & comp.
Post actions
I like it but I think that the Corona should have been more in foreground.
Post actions
Post actions
cool settings, harmonious colours. best of luck
Post actions
Well crafted shot: would have cropped a bit tighter on the left and a fraction on the bottom..this would have featured the bottle a wee bit more.
Post actions
Excellent idea, great composition.
Post actions
Great use of color. Softening the water was a brilliant idea. Photo is just amazing 9.
Post actions
Nicely done, looks fresh, wet and I'm thirsty. I like the lighting and the focus is very good.
Post actions
I want a beer now. thanks.-9-

Post actions
I don't really like the overall yellow hue, but the shot itself is good. You know, except for the Corona part...;-P
Post actions
a ribbon winner? great image...I would have zoomed in a little closer as the rock on the left is distracting compositionally speaking...9
Post actions
Post actions
Oh yeah!!! This looks just like a print ad!!
Post actions
Post actions
slightly cliche but still one of the best in the challenge. 9
Cool. Smooth. Refreshing.
