Of course the coffe was alredy cold, and also we did a lot of rehearse with an empty cup before the actual shot ( just had one chance. . I almost blew it )

I haven't decided the meaning of the shot yet. For now it's just something that came to my head

Hope you like it
...this is GOLD!... brilliant work..heh... poor sister!

Should this shot be reminding me of the movie Carrie?

How I make coffee:



I'm not particularly happy with the result but it's the first time I've used multiple layer masks.

If you want to learn, the most important things are not answers but more questions

Eg. why did you position the cup where you did (almost but not quite centred)?; why did you choose that size (about 25% of the full frame)?; are you happy with the lighting (perhaps a little bright on the right and dull on the left)?; could you and should you have tried to get the top of the drink in sharper focus?

So, what are your answers?
