I'd been trying to pose my friends with various products for the Advertisement Revisited challenge, but I didn't like the way any shots were turning out. When I got home I put a bottle of Captain Morgan on my pillow and the lighting was perfect. Go figure.

It looks like you may have been sampling some of the product because this is not in focus. I am seeing double and I haven't been drinking anything stronger than coffee.
You've got a bit of what looks like motion blur in this shot, which is distracting.. Either that or I've already been into the rum :-). Exposure and colour are good. A tripod, or stack of books and self-timer are your friends.
I"m not sure if it's the lighting causing some reflections along the middle and bottom, and around the edges of the bottle, but this almost looks out of focus. Sometimes lenses will do this when you take a photo too close to the subject. But I like that it looks like you didn't use a flash - the colours and tones are well captured.
drink enough and you won't see the blur in this shot. better lighting, a sharp image and more saturated colors would count for a good couple of points. There is also a lack of focus, even though the logo would be the obvious focus point, the composition leaves something to be desired.
