That is true. The comments can be deflating if you are just starting out and feeling super proud of your shot BUT following the feedback I got there is definite marked improvement in my photography.@luckypig welcome to Talk Photography, please don't take the above comments too much to heart, I'm sure you liked the image and I am pretty sure purple is what you were going for People are trying to give what might be helpful feedback even if the comments do sound a bit harsh on what I assume is your first or second photo on here.
hey, the picture is raw. nothing is modified. I posted is like I shot it!@luckypig please come back and tell us what you were trying to achieve with this picture. Perhaps the purple colour is intended?
I didn't use anything. its all natural!I think it is an ok photo - it is a tricky subject in some ways to get right. I wonder if you could have used a different aperture.
its the light of the bar I was sitting in that does that.Mohitos are green though?
I would shoot it from the side, less saturated colors and I will bring attention to the ice in the drink. You also need to add some point of interest beyond the ice such as lime, mint and the spoon perhaps.
Try to keep the lighting localised to the drink itself to highlight the contents. As your shot is roughly the same colour all over it detracts from your subject, darker background will help.
