It doesn't matter anyway, because if I try to drink it, you will just take it way. I know you will.

Nice photo but does not convey a de-motivating message to the viewer.

I like this Pic. Problem is with the brightness
at the bottom of the glass, it actually evokes
a sort of Hopefulness as opposed to Pessimisim.

Your lighting is too harsh on the bottom of the glass. I am not too hot about how layered your drink looks (the top layers does not look appetizing at all) but I think it works for pessimism.

I enjoy this photo because, I myself am a pessimist...and I will tell you...this poster really hits you harder than many would like to admit. The visual effect and the clean photograph make you think. I really enjoy this photograph....great job!
