I'm not sure why, but this piece makes me happy. Maybe it's the reference to coffee...(caffein addict)..maybe it's because It's the first pic to actually fill the challange that I have seen. But it's also pleasing to the eye - the fact that it's NOT completely centered, there are repetitive shapes, wonderful ciaroscurro, and it's a framing piece. Well done.

Like a hall of mirrors, only without the mirrors. I like the effect, and that you've chosen an unconventional approach to this challenge.

This would be stronger converted to grey scale. The composition is very good, though.

This stands out to me. Number one, the pun in the name, but also the composition and angle of the shot. Right side seems cropped too tight. Minor: dot of white far right on horizon. Nice lighting, seems a tad oversharpened, still nice.

I like this idea but feel the handle that is framed could be more sharp?

The hint of chromatic aberration on the near handle is a tad distracting, but I like the colours and the composition. Nice job, meets the challenge well.

Very creative and in this shot the "TITLE" adds to the photograph.

Lovely idea and I like the clean, modern result. I'd personally crop a touch more from the bottom.

This is one of those shots that has me saying to myself "Now why didn`t I think of that". Simple concept but very effective...8

extremely inventive. Is there a way you can get the second mug in a little more focus? That would have been interesting to see. Also, I suggest a cropping closer to the bottom of the mug handle and further from the top for centering purposes.
