Coffee and Smokes II

Tennessee

It was pointed out to me in my first submission that it wasn't taken DURING the Challenge, so I asked Vikas to remove the submission to the Exhibition Gallery. However, this one is as shown by the part EXIF. :o)

Thanks to all of those who commented before, and please comment on this one. There is some differences here. This one is darker and "grittier" (is that a word?)which I like a lot better.

Again, thanks.

I love this image. I was out of votes as it was, and ended up going for more fluid liquid :(

It works well Dale. Initially I thought perhaps you could have opened the lighter or the ciggie box, but I think that would definitely detract from the almost minimalist feel which works here.

My own personal preference might have been to have a little less contrast, (so that that cup is not completely black) and more grain or grit, however that would have a completely different feel altogether.

Excellent - glad you reshot for Eligible. I very much admire the super high contrast on this shot - I'm too chicken to push that far most of the time, but yours looks great. -Ed Hahn
