Really good focus on the wall beyond the waste can. I can't be certain, does the lady in the white blouse have the camera or is it the the woman to the left? I am going to deduct 1 point for the camera in the shot issue. If I am wrong, please e-mail me and I will gladly add it back. 6 Swash
i very much enjoy starbucks coffee as well. ever had verona? it's the best, queen of coffees. i like double espressos, except when they're serving verona i get 2 shots of espresso in a short cup of verona. ever notice the black tables outside the stores are highly reflective when wet? my portrait photo for this challenge got taken that way, it's called 'christafari'. you should check out www.mirrorproject.com
You have an uninteresting flor and the edge of a common doorway in focus, and your reflection on the can is unfocused. It would be much beter the other way around, I believe...
