Crops a little tight all round, would also have liked to see a bit more of the reflection, I get that the pepsi can is upside down but it would have had more impact with the coke cans being upside down strongly in the reflection too. Maybe some water drops on the cans would have also added some interest - you know how DPC loves its water so much ;)

A creative effort, and one you clearly put some thought and effort into. I'm afraid it's not coming off well to me, however. The image as a whole strikes me as too dark, so the very important element of the reflection is not jumping out with a quick glance (and a quick glance is all that most entries get from the average voter here). I think it's also cropped extremely tight and could benefit from a little more breathing room.

It seems a bit crowded... more space on the sides and top would have appealed to me more. 5
