The top down approach used here seems to flatten everything. It feels very 2 dimensional. The only think that really gives any depth is the handle, and it's not enough to carry the shot.
Nice set up on the cup. I don't like the table cover, it looks like torn jeans. Perhaps if it totally covered the table and there was not the dark strip of table showing through on the right.
The interesting fabric in the back and coffee paraphanalia in the saucer keep this shot from falling into the "another shot of a cup of coffee" catagory. Stands out from the crowd.
the fabric background feels distracting to me--i think it's where the white shows through the blue. the plate, cookies, and cup are lovely in their arrangement, and i like the swatch of wood table exposed, too.
