I want to thank my wife who helped me with setting this up. She also helped with drinking the ones that didn't look good. It was a dirty job but she was a real trooper and she knew it was for a good cause.

I love your notes! And this is a good shot - clean, well lit, good composition, and good job avoiding glare/reflections on the glass - a lot harder than it looks. You may have suffered a bit from those who have seen a lot of shots like this in challenges. I do think it a different take on this particular challenge, though.
I like the detail here. The textures in the bubbles really shine through. I also like the contrast in the red and yellow, good use. The lemon slice is perfect the nice perfect line it makes across the glass. While I like the angle of the shot (it is really good), I'm just curious what made you decide the current composition (glass cut off where it is). Nothing wrong with it, just curious why you did not include the glass to the base, or less of the glass to match the rime. Really, just wondering why the current composition, nothing against it though. Great sharp, "instant" moment type of capture.
I thought this was a very good entry, and although it's a solid score, I expected it would finish much higher. I think you did a fantastic job with the lighting, colors and composition. Very well done all around!
