Thrusday's Totally Informal Transglobal Challenge: Minimalism

Today's challenge caught me flat-footed. I am visiting Las Vegas, Nevada, where the concept of 'minimal' goes largely unheeded.

But please visit other's who have very nicely portrayed the concept by Clicking Here
I will try to catch up with all the entries when things slow down here some.

FujiFilm FinePix F10 Zoom
1/20s f/2.8 at 8.0mm iso1600 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

I think your only option in Vegas would have been to shoot the sky!

A shot to have my tastebuds zooming along !!

Minimal but essential. Good thought.

Neat image, I could go for a cup about now.

Coffee break to count your winnings? ;-) I love any picture with coffee in it :-) Well done.

My mind has turned minimalistic seeing this very welcome cup of coffee - superb!
Guest 01-Dec-2006 01:07
LOL, I can see where you would be challenged by the minimalism challenge in Vegas. ;-)

Never been in Las Vegas, but I can imagine your problems with taking a minimalist shot there (a stereotype, maybe). A beautiful cop of coffee, nevertheless!
Michael Shpuntov30-Nov-2006 23:57
It was probably to get something as minimal as that one. Great shot. Hope it was great coffee.
Stephen Ware30-Nov-2006 23:56
Nice shot, I could go for a cup right now.
chrisse30-Nov-2006 21:59

LOL at Cindi!
That sure is a great image....wish I could reach in and grab it!
And is that hot sauce back there? ;o)
Cindi Smith30-Nov-2006 21:48
This shot reminds me of a Folger's commercial. Great shot! Enjoy Las Vegas or as we say here in Texas, Lost Wages!
Robin Reid30-Nov-2006 21:41
LOL re being in Vegas. Your coffee cup was a good choice.
Bill Ewart Jr30-Nov-2006 21:31
Las Vegas Coffee!!!!!! Double or nothing! Where's the dice?
Sheila30-Nov-2006 21:21

Linda Matta30-Nov-2006 21:19

Guest 30-Nov-2006 21:08
Isn't black the minimalistic version of coffee? Nice warm light.
Barbara Heide30-Nov-2006 21:07

JW30-Nov-2006 21:06
if there's no milk and no sugar, then it's minimal! LOL
Jola Dziubinska30-Nov-2006 20:54
Excellent capture.
Coleen Perilloux Landry30-Nov-2006 20:39
Look out, there's a poker chip floating in that coffee.
Faye White30-Nov-2006 20:36

Nice shot.

If it is - what we call in Europe - an "American coffe" then may be it's nice fit :)
Guest 30-Nov-2006 19:35

Bob Floyd30-Nov-2006 19:27

Dave Wixx30-Nov-2006 19:21
Minimum fuss, maximum flavour!!

Keeping it to one might be minimal in a city that never sleeps ;)
