I would have expected tea from the shot :-)

I like the different textures and the rich warm color of the glasses and tiles. :-) CJ

Yes Sander, either full of hot chocy here as is, or in a nicer setting with romantic lighting for a backlit shot of the empty glasses:-)
Sander 17-Apr-2006 17:47
Both noted. I was trying for the translucent look of the mugs. Also that is why it is primarily backlighted. The black and silver of the kettle turned out quite contrasty. This clashes a bit with the romantic look of the mugs. Is this maybe what you saw as well?

For the title this would look better with hot chocolate in the cups & also try for a softer more even lighting. Nice effort though mate.

The blue flame must have been some sort of lens flare or something. I tried to clone it out, but I ended up redoing the shoot. My photoshop skils are somewhat lacking :)

Like the composition but wondering what that little blue flamelike thing is in the bottom right? - Britt
