 Four flavours and a shaker ... a recipe for a great party! Shot taken on my computer desk with some Linkin Park in the background. Post process ... some gradient curves, selective color on the blue's, a kick of noise ninja and some smart sharpen.

The white balance looks really off in this photo. Also, everything seems underexposed, except for the second bottle, which appears completely blown out on my monitor. There are also several hot spots on the bottles and lids that should have been removed. I also think the inclusion of the entire first bottle could have improved the overall composition of the photograph.

I really like the title with this shot, looks great, though I'd have used maybe a cooler light.

The white balance is a off on this photo. It would have looked great in my opinion if the background was a more pure white.

the highlithgs on the second bottle seem blown out, but other than that I think it's a nice shoot!

This is awesome except I don't like the tight cropping on the first bottle.

Nice tone - brightness of second bottle looks slightly out of synch, so I might've put it at the front?
