hey man, the overall feel of this image is really nice! A Few things..The first thing that jumps out at me is the horizon isn't straight, which is an easy fix. Second the highlights on the side of the can are a little blown out. Using some other diffusion or a lower power setting on your strobe will remedy this. Lastly I really like the way it looks like it's shot on ice, really cool touch. But the steam coming off the can gets lost into the background. A little more subtle and you have a great shot! Hope this helps.

thanks man for the positive and important tips.

Generally a great shot! I agree that the first issue is the blown out edge lighting on the can. the horizon is a problem because it's so sharp that it fights the can for attention. And the background color also seems to compete with the can color as well. and it doesnt bring any"refreshing" feel either. I would change that.
The can itself looks really good, great condensation and water droplet definition. Also, you might want to drop lower and shoot up at the can a bit more.
