Too contrasty. Hand in particular needs more tonal range. Also, for a closeup like this, the glass really needs to be sparkling clean. But I like the composition and idea! 5
A nice B&W photo:) what I imight have tried to do would have been to have kept the flash down a bit by reflecting or difusing it. I have used a white sheet of paper when I had to use a built in flash. I would hold it about three inches in front of flash. Hope this helps:)
Oh no. Using water instead of champagne really takes a lot away from this photograph. The bubbles running up through the ring would have looked stunning.
Neat idea - the ing is in the glass, I like how it has tilted in her hand as if she is just noticing. The lighting is almost completely blown out on the hand - we can;t see any details..and the light is glaring off the fingerprints on the glass. It is a good idea and a nice composition, but need better preparation befoer shooting.
Good composition and good idea. The light is way to harsh and it just fries the hand. The glass has visible finger prints and they are a distraction. Your focus is nice and the idea was a good one.
