Now this is exactly what the assignment called for. It’s a wide tonal range heavily slanted to the darks.
You’ve pretty much nailed the assignment and there are only a few minor notes.
One note would be that the bottle is almost too central to the frame. Meaning it’s almost to close to the middle for my liking.
Don’t forget one of the simplest ways to improve your photography is to add people!
You’ve clearly shown that you understood the assignment so job well done here!
