Description
Dedicated to `Davenit for his kind words and support. His work is always so beautiful, inspirational and flawlessly presented. I hoped this piece might be somewhere close.Geoff helped me think this one up. I forget what tangent we'd gone off on, but he somehow made me think of taking a photo of a drink that looks like a cocktail a medic might drink.
The thought of a medics cocktail also made me think of spiked drinks- and this glass is well and truly spiked with both crushed glass and a needle, linking back to the medic.
The way I see it, spiked drinks are the drinks of the medics, since they always have to deal with the effects of them- but never seem to get the chance to go out and drink themselves, since they're busy looking after those that have been spiked.
And spiked drinks can cause death- hence the poison part.
Remember: Always keep an eye on your drink and the drinks of your friends on a night out. Never leave them unattended.

As soon as I saw the thumbnail of this photo I thought of `Davenit and his crazy photo depicting syringes with the most colourful liquids in them. I've always loved them and I have to say you've done a good job too. I really appreciate the angle of this photo as I find funny the way the syringe looks like. The game that water plays by making items look bigger than what they really are is something that always attracts me. The lights are well done, giving importance to the blue liquid, making us wondering about it. As for the skull, I think it helps a lot the image, the glass itself would have looked nice but probably not as intriguing as it looks with a skull next to it.

After seeing this, I would have second thoughts if you invited me up for a night cap! (However, the drink does look enticing.)

I like this, and I think overall you did a good job.
I think in terms of suggestions for improvement, the light could certainly be better, a little on the flat side, and the image is crooked, you can see this in the horizon line of the shadow and in the glass with how it is slanting and leaning.
Overall, the concept is very well executed, I really like the placement of the skull in this and it adds some much needed and nice weight to the image, wonderful compositional feel.
Other than what I suggested, maybe make the full size smaller, I am having to scroll to see it all, I usually stick to around 750px on a portrait orientated shot on the longest side.
You did dang good! I am proud of you! e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/sā¦ " width="15" height="15" alt="

Beautifully done as usual Xerces ^^ it is a culinary example of death at it's most finest hour. The photography is perfection. The lighting is so flawless it is nearly nonexistent. Although I may not be an expert critique "yes, I did use spell check" I can say with out a doubt that this piece's morbid yet loose feel falls well under Xerces' own personal style and reflects her personality astonishingly well. Although, I may have to think twice about seeing my doctor for that "monthly check up", I did in fact enjoy this piece and if I am to drink my last drink , who better to have it with then the lovely Xerces.

So Impressive, the Medical Drink idea is great.
Love the Color. Blue stands out in the contrast, and the Skull makes more interesting shot.
Also you add an Advice. Perfects!

thanks hun! glad you think the blue looks ok- i do love blue- i don't use it anywhere near enough!

That looks dangerously delicious.
As someone else mentioned it looks slightly tilted and perhaps the composition is a little left heavy, but other than that it's bloody cool.

I love the blue of the drink, so strange and unusual and crazily enticing...yet we know there's something definitely not right, what with the syringe inside and the grinning skull, a warning...

I wish I could give you a critique, but I never can find just the right thing to say. So this will have to do!
I love this, and have a fear of syringes, but this is gorgeous nonetheless.
