Little cliche, but we all have times where we can't resist the shot.

The shot probably could have been stronger if you have used a plain wine glass. The patterns in the glass that you used are distracting and take away from the shot. Hehe, I seem to be staring at that flower an awful lot.

I know that the sky looks nice and all, but there is to much dead space at the top of the photo. It is also cropped a little tight on the bottom of the photo, it feels like there needs to be a little space between the glass and the edge of the frame.

It looks like you shot this with a really high ISO setting because there is a lot of grain. Using a lower ISO could have improved your shot. When you use a lower ISO your sensor is more colour sensitive which would have improved your sunset in the background, which seems sort of muted.

The composition is really nice, I love how it is central. The colours are beautiful, sort of wine coloured as well, which works great with the photograph. The only thing I can say against it is the amount of noise, but besides that it is lovely well done.

The only issue I have with this is my OCD. It feels like the land in the background should be down lower to cross with the stem of the glass instead of cutting through the bottom of it. so if the angle had been just a bit more tilted up... I like the boat though, that was interesting just to notice there.

i agree. if this were an ocean or a bigger lake the problem would be solved for us though. thanks

Rather unique, havne't seen anything quite like this before. Can I ask, what ISO did you have this set at? Seems to be a lot of noise present.

yeah, im kind of disappointed about the noise but i had to use pretty high ISO because my tripod broke and i was holding it with my hand. it was at 1200 i believe but i could be wrong. if i had a tripod i definitely would have been shooting at 800 or 400.
