 I have to say I'm rather happy with how this one turned out. I had the idea all week, and couldn't think of an appropriate way to do it so I just went ahead and took the shot, fully expecting it to achieve the high 4's I usually get. The "HI" in the coffee wasn't intentional, but it's a nice surprise touch.

Did you intentionally write 'HI' in the coffee? It's a nice touch either way.

This meets the challenge – it’s inanimate and arranged. It's heavily cropped and the theme is literary rather than visual. 6
