OK – in my mind’s eye this looked loads different but I was trying DMs patience because it was him pouring endless cups of coffee while flinging coffee beans at them. It shouldn’t have him or me reflected in the shot. It shouldn’t have coffee beans running away everywhere, they should be coming down in a nice stream into the nice stream of coffee. The pot’s lid shouldn’t be scratched all to glory and all-in-all it’d be a loads better shot.

DM was getting bored and frustrated and so I had to make do with the best shot I’d taken in the sequence and go with it. Strangely this is another one of the ones that’s been rumbling around in my mind for ages and it keeps popping out at the wrong moment – at 10pm when I’m desperately looking for a shot but don’t have either the time or the energy for defying the laws of physics.

That’s what it’s known as in our house – “Oh no, Linda’s trying to defy the laws of physics again for her shot!”. Still, at least it’s more interesting than a static shot of something unappealing which was the alternative!
