"Primitive Light Metering" is a nice addition to the Duotones challenge. Not a bad first challenge at all. It is really hard in the challenge that have over 500 entries like this one. There are so many images to vote through I think an image just has to ump out to the voter after the swift through the first few hundred shots.

The image itself, is interesting and works for me. I really like the idea and the way you were able to implement a few different things. Primitive Light Metering Like the reflection on the bowl and the movement of the sugar being poured. I really like the placement of the subject and overall composition of the shot. The only thing I am really seeing in the shot is the sensor dust and it even looks like maybe you tried to adjust it or something to create the additional smudges in that area. Probably without those spots your entry would have a bit higher.

I personally would be very proud, this is a great first entry. I am looking forward to seeing what you create for us in the future. Good work and good luck.

Good idea... it'd been fun to see a color version of this photo as well :)

damn this sensor dust.. I was so annoyed myself and I had to choose the the only shot which wasn't showing the dust...it got under a dark area and I could use the shot without cloning :)
I like the darker tones and contrast 7
