● Crop out the right hand bottle because:

1) It is a distraction - It is out of focus and it's size is HUGE relative to the small in focus subject.

2) It is a distraction - It is out of focus and it is a very bright (lable is white) blurry thing that wants to say "look at me" becuase it is bright. But you can't look at it because it is out of focus.

3) It is a distraction - It is a huge, bright, out of focus thing that looks like it is falling over forward.

● Why is your subject right in the middle of the frame? With the bottles receeding on the left we get the idea that this is a long line of things. You don't need the bottles on the right to redundently tell us that again redundently. So why waste the space? Tell me, when you look at a long line of things, do you naturally look at the front of the line - or the third thing down the line? So why did you choose to frame it this way?

● The beer bottles are leaning backwards.

thanks Radtech for pointing out these points, now even i feel that right most bottle is a big distraction, well had nothing specific in mind while framing it just that wanted to fill the whole picture

It looks like the group of bottles in the background might have been more interesting. :)
