1st: Black or White
by Techo

Had fun renting two 580exII flashes for a few weeks. I put up white posters boards on the sides and shot a flash into one,
the 2nd flash shot from the top. The bounce did the lighting. No selective edits where done in PP.
Shot was cropped , contrast adjusted, resized and sharpened.

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM
Aperture: f11
ISO: 400
Shutter: 1/160 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

even though I don't like milk in my coffee, this is one of the most inviting coffee cups I have seen to date :)
excellent composition and lighting work...as usual. -Abstract

Wow. Very nicely done shapes and color (or not). Why the spoon? (although I guess it's a nice touch).

Classy pic and nice everything. Suitable sub-themes too, like "round and square", "rigid and organic" (shapes). And a good double title.
(A hot pixel in the coffee? Just before 6 o'clock.)
