I were quite surprised this one didnt reach ribbon or even top5. Voted 7 on this and most of the winning shots went below 5 or even 4 from me.

the softness on the right and left seems a bit strange...

Cool use of DOF, I reckon this was shot using a tilt and shift lens.

ONE OF MY FAVORITES...color and contrast is awsome...the blending blur on the side is such a nice accent...10 for me!!!

I miss some focus in this one

Nice and simple and effective. Did you use the Lensbaby, I wonder. 8

Like the simplicity of the cup with the rich look of the chocolate, but the blur is a little heavy for my liking. Too tight? maybe not quite centered right? I'm not sure, but it just doesn't QUITE work for me.

try a wider depth of field next time (5)

I think the zoom blur detracts from the image.

Interesting take to the shot. I like the shallow DOF. The background light is not even but other than that looks good. Oh and what type of tea is that? It looks like coffee to me.
Post actions
Great lighting! Personally, I don't care for the blur effect, but I think it is well done.
Post actions
I like how the focus is centered and it is blurry around the outside of the image. How did you do that?
Post actions
lighting and composition are good, but might have been better with less blur and a slight clockwise rotation

Magic photo great focus point. 9

Nice and simple composition, though I think a deeper DOF to bring the sides into focus would be beneficial. (Looks like it may have been some kind of effects lens filter too.)
Post actions
Very nice. Would like to know how you achieved the fuzzy look on each side.
Post actions
I haven't gone through them all but, thus far, my guess is that this will win....damnit. :) Tilt-shift? Lensbaby?
Post actions
The DOF is a little much .. the chocolate feels that it should be fully in focus.
Post actions
Yeah, that looks really good right now. Nice color combo too.
Post actions
Very nice, looks comforting. Would like to see a bigger DOF.
Post actions
oh yes! THIS IS COMFORT!!

Like this a lot. Simple, soft and concise statement. No clutter. Nice composition. 10

the blur on the left of the cup and right of the chocoloate shouldn't be there.
