i really like the setup, and normally i wouldnt mind the slower shutter, but i think because it is a granular challenge i want to see the individual sugar grains
Dainty! Just love your color combination, you are a person of excellent taste (no pun intended) and that tablecloth would be found in a Scandinavian home...
My friend and I were just discussing this shot earlier, he mentioned that there was a entry "Sugar with coffee" that showed that a well excecuted photo despite lacking originality can still be good. I agree with him so I feel you get a 7.
