Yes
In an attempt to improve our rudimentary photography skills, my girlfriend and I have embarked on a weekly photo competition, based on consecutive alphabetic themes. The challenge being to take photo's that are technically competent and that stretch us creatively

We alternate each week who chooses the theme, which has to begin with the next letter of the alphabet. We have one week to complete, prior to sharing, but thought that external review from fellow TP'ers would also be helpful.

and quickly onto week 3, theme is now Celebration

we welcome and feedback, critique, or just which you prefer ;)

No.2 for me.

I really like the idea of No.1 but (and it could be my monitor) i'm not sure where the focus is. It looks like its on the glasses? I did a similar shot a few years back and found it quite challenging with the candle light, mine is here, admittedly i completely missed the focus :bonk:.

With No.2 i like the DOF and the focus looks spot on. I also really like the highlight around the base of the glass.

#2 has a definite area of focus so gets the vote. #1's focus area is too subtle IMO.
