Coffee

Posted by DaveB (Exeter, United Kingdom) on 10 February 2008 in Cityscape & Urban.

This is another one taken while waiting in the rain, trying out my contacts. It came out alot duller than I expected so I had to play with photoshop to get something I liked!

Constructive criticism (or just downright criticism!) is welcome and appreciated for all my shots!

Due to the fact that I'll be working on site in Scotland for the forseeable future, I probably won't be able to respond to comments straight away, but will try my best, and will definitely get back to you eventually!

As always, feedback and constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated!

Great processing... I would have not put it in the center though, you could crop it and take out the right see what it does...

@Sandrine: I'll give it a shot Sandrine, thanks for the feedback

I really like the processing. Gives it a great look. I do agree with Sandrine for the cup being too central (alas, I am a day late and a dollar short, tho' LOL) Even a more panoramic style crop might be effective??

@amy: Possibly, the background took away from the shot so part of the reasoning behind my post-processing was to blacken it so all the focus was on the cup! I might play around with it a bit if I can find the time!
