Love this shot, excellent use of colors. A bit of noise on the red seems to draw me to it, the other colors are fine, just the red! Have you used noise ninja, it's top quality and very fast.
Contrasting bold colours are always are turn on for me :-)
Im being ultra picky here - I wonder if it would have worked better with a greater DOF and a slight cropping to remove the bottom half of the blue container? (just enough so that you can see that it is a container) Just a thought. (which is probably wrong)

I've got an almost identical picture set up at home ready to post, with the same title, but I guess you got in first :)
Simplicity and odd cropping is the key for me on this. The *liquid* isn't as in your face as other shots present which is refreshing. iso - sucker for anything on a white background ;-p
Gayle: Engaging, colorful image; well composed. On the constructive side, more reflection coming off the paint would emphasize the fact that it is liquid. Took my eyes a moment to figure it out. It looks your lighting came from two sources. The backlighting, where it did strike the paint, generated a revealing (but fairly small) reflection. Some way to angle in more? Nice as-is, though. --Joe
