I'm annoyed with this one because the water just looks so abnormally jagged/photoshopped, but I swear, it isn't

I'll probably end up redoing this shoot since it had to be cut short, so any criticism would be appreciated

The only dislike I have is the can looks a little squished for some reason. :0 otherwise it looks amazing.

I like it

I think it could be cropped just a smidgen more at the bottom--and I mean just a smidgen--there's a dark line where the red part of the coke can starts to reflect and it bothers me. Other than that, I approve

I'm going to nitpick if you're planning to redo the shoot anyway, so please don't take these suggestions as bashing of a technically very good photo. First of all, I'd crop out the reflection of the can on the lower edge of the photo (hardly noticeable, but distracting once you've paid attention to it). It's probably hard to get everything in focus when so much is happening in the photo, but the text appears slightly blurry, so you might want to try doing something about that. I'm not sure whether or not I'm disturbed by the reflection on the "cherry" text, but if you have something to reduce it, give it a try. I might also turn the can a bit so that you don't see the edge of the ingredients table... I said I was going to nitpick! Finally, I think the space on the right is unnecessary composition-wise, but that's certainly your call. Hope you can use some of this overkill critique

I see what you mean, thank you! It's hard to position my flash so it doesn't die really quickly on me, hits the water, and doesn't blow out the coke... a hard task!

I'll be sure to think of all of these if I try again
