hey Etisher, here's a link to the image I took in an early Sony Challenge. You may notice a similar instance of liquid that would not spill. lol Someone left me a comment about the lack of spilling but, that comments seems to have been removed.
Thanks for sharing your great image with us! Markjay

Here's the link

The reason the beer is straight in the glass is because when you fall off your barstool the beer stays where it is (Praise the Lord!). jano

The subject color and background work very nicely together. What I'd like to inquire about is (*) why the beer is still straight inside the glass? :-) Someone in another challenge pointed this out to me in one of my own images from the challenge, bringing up "truth in advertising" as the reason the image didn't "work" for them. I like yours no matter what, nice work.

Well done, but I prefer Belgian or Czech beers myself. :-) I think this would make a good poster.

Being Irish as I am, the blur is normal to me, composition great, and I usually see my beer this way. (burp).... Really good shot :) jano

Beautiful shot. Everything about it says "smooth" and "creamy", even the border (which I don't normally like, but works great here!). :)

Great composition, harmonic colors. The border works for me. Your shot makes me much more thirsty than the official Guinness sign with the toucan. Slainte!

You guys have an eye for detail. There "was" slight motion blur, I thought for sure after resizing and sharpening it would impossible to tell. thanks for your comments, Eric (etischer)

Nice setup. The composition is really great. I too see some blurriness on the edges of the bottle's neck, but everything else looks really good. I also like the matching frame.

I really like this photo. It could be used as an ad. Well done etischer.

my favourite beer. the dublin/james gate brewery (small fonts) words and the line (where the white color starts) on the bottle looks a little blurry. is that camera shake? a nicely composed shot of an extra ordinary beer in beautiful lighting though. -Abstract

Very nice, but with one too many black & tans for me:-)
