Hi Liz
Short...... both images right on theme & a rather nice single malt to boot
ICE....NOOOOOOOO
1st Image....don't ask me why but images with objects in them displayed like this seem to work better with odd numbers....I'd lose the silver drinks measure & possibly , maybe, go for a slightly lower POV .The BG is a little distracting...maybe a sheet of black card or similar wouldv'e worked , though I do like the corner in the BG.
2nd Image....prefer the 3 itmes & lower POV, poss just a little soft on the decanter top....were you using a tripod ? The DOF if great & helps to hide the BG a bit more...card or cloning maybe ?
Sorry if I seem to be a bit harsh...just saying it as I see it & no doubt others will totally disagree cos I'm not known for being right
