 I'm cheating and using this for both overlay and slice sides.

My beloved coffee/espresso maker with milk frother has taken ill. The heating element for the espresso/milk-froth water container has burned out. Much to my dismay!

I make very strong coffee and drink it with steamed milk. Alas - no more.

So here you see that I had to heat my milk in a POT and pour the coffee into it. It just doesn't taste the same and no froth.

I processed this "normally", then I put a fractalius filter on the same photo and overlayed it in soft light mode. Added another filter with frame in overlay mode - and voila.

I can see the energy flowing out of that cup of coffee. I like the processing.

I love the fractalius filter and it really makes your coffee look magical.

I like the "glow" effect around the cup. That would seriously bum me out if my espresso machine packed up.

Little known factoid. Finns drink more coffee per capita than any other nation! :) More than 11kg. That is a lot of coffee.
