lovely shot, but the wooden table bugs me,
i believe it would have been a better shot with a glass table on black wood

Longreach this is the nicest complimet I've ever received, Thank You!

DrAchoo :))) I thought about putting the girl upside down. Then I decided to post this one. Thank you for your comment!

BrenB, thank you for your comment. Yes, it is true, the lighting on the hand is a bit too much. Probably because of the long exposure. Unfortnately I've seen it the next morning. On the small display of the camera I couldn't tell. I could fix it immediately with PS or ACDSEE but I would have been DQ for spot editing.
I've been asked during the challenge to send the original picture.

alionic Thank you! :) Looking forward to go shooting together. It seems that the weather will be bad this weekend :(

CeeDeez I am glad to see you're interested how the picture was made. If I had someone to help it would have taken half the time. I had to do countless shots until I could manage to have the picture above perfectly reflected in the coffee. Being late and with the normal room light it was difficult to see the face reflected. Actually the face appeeard clearly only in a long exposure (10 sec).

eschelar To keep my hand still was tough. I had to keep it on the table but touching the table made the candles flickering and distort the coffee surface. Until everything retunred to normal and I was sitting on my knees under the tripod there was no one to click the camera button. HEEELP !!!!
:)))

henry_buckle Thank you for your comment. About the 1 and 5 of 2's and 10 of 3's...still a bad, bad world! :(

Can I use the same pic for Reflections Challenge ? LOOOL !!!

A big congratulations on your first ribbon. I love the hue and clarity of this shot. And all your effort (and lack of sleep) certainly paid off.
