 Even a very bad habit such as smoking can be turned into something beautiful. :]

I didn't realize the flower was a cigarette until I had begun reading through other comments. Uhg. I wonder how long I could've lived like that... it's very cool.

very pretty, although I'd have liked it better without the white flower thing. Also, seems just a tad soft on focus, did you use USM after resizing?

That's the prettiest cup of coffee I have seen! Way to spruce up the shot! (no pun intended) :-)

Took me a while to realize the "flower" was a cigarette. I like the background.

Nice image, I like all the colors. center composition is ok, but would like see how it would look with the coffee cup move to the left and having the colors take you out of the shot...........6

I just got out my chair to give this one a standing ovation. I didn't think it was possible to see 100 shots of a cup of coffee in a saucer and find one that really stands out from the all the others. Excellent job with the backdrop and the matching items in the saucer. You have taken a shot you knew would be lost in the confusion of all those similiar and made it stand out. 10.

Great shot spoilt by being centred in frame. Composition is all important for a successful score
