amateur: still life - b&w

Total beginner here - welcomes any and all comments! Thanks.

someone has a good taste in whisky - Islay single-malt - not bad :-) Photo-wise I am not sure - slighlty blurry picture of a bottle... Perhaps different light, different crop etc... just doesn't work for me as it is.

My favourite malt!

Certainly the expression of an experimental view ! However the way it is presented does not work for me ! I should have used another background (e.g black) and a warmer light. Probably there is something to do with the sharpness as well, depending on what you want to express with the picture.

The jpg compression is excessive on this photo, which makes it blocky.
