Default Coffee

So, one of my black and white shots. This time - of a coffee cup. What do you think?

Hi Klaidas:
I don't know if it's me or there some trouble with your page. Can't enter to it.
Hope you can fix it!

Had no trouble accessing the photo, oriolhdz, maybe its a local problem?

Klaidas, I like the shot and think I can see what you were aiming for. To me the left side is a bit too bright and unbalances the composition. Maybe having a small amount of coffee in the bottom of the cup (1/4 full?) would help here.

That should show you all the image.

Nice picture but it seems a bit straight... how about a similar shot with the handle of the coffee cup at an angle (perhaps pointing to the bottom right corner)?

Thanks, the ideas look promising (less coffee, angled handle)

Also, I thought I couldn't hotlink images with my current host, but it looks there's no such restriction :/

No, I think you are right - the image I put in doesn't appear now. Perhaps it just showed up before because I had just looked at it so my browser was able to make a substitution?
