Challenge: Under- (Minimal Editing I*)
Camera: Canon EOS-350D Rebel XT
Lens: Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 II
Location: Basement studio

Aperture: f22
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/200

 Just one of several ideas that came to me and this turned out to be the one I chose to pursue in the time available. Used SB-25 @ full power in softbox from above as main light with white reflector at front. Used f22 to get as much DOF as possible. For post, I just resized it and "auto" sharpened.

I liked the photo, but especially appreciated the clever title. :)

I don't like the liquid in the cup or the beans in the liquid -one or the other but not both - otherwise a great stock image.

An interesting take on the challenge. Not sure the water was needed in the cup though I do understand why you did that.

neat concept! First saw your title entry and was expecting an image dealing with the earth. I like your concept better. I also like how you have the one lone bean straying from the pile. Creates a bit of interest. Hope this places well.

That is some very chunky coffee :) Great idea for this challenge.

That would be a great name & logo for a coffee shop. A place where DPCers can 'brew' over their photos and their scores :)

The white balance is off in this picture. However, this is a great concept and one of the few images in this challenge that actually cleverly incorporates the title. 7
