    I liked this a lot better after looking at it for a little while. It challenged me to see it differently, which is a good thing. So, yes, slow impact, thumbs up.
    If not now, when?

    Thanks Rutt. It actually had the same effect on me as I passed of it time and again before processing. Eventually I decided to work it up. I'm not sure I'm happy with the processing but I recently upgraded to PS CS4 and am still trying to find everything. thumb.gif

    Ah good, I'm glad to hear that. The foreground (primarily the cup) looks a bit flat to me but perhaps that's because it's glass. :D

    Nice one, Travis! My first instinct would be to ask why not focus on the girl. But then...you've got enough depth of field so that we know what she looks like, and how she's reacting, and we're really drawn to what she's reacting to. Nicely done!clap.gifclap.gif

    Thanks, B.D. Since the cup was so important to her I felt as though I should make it important to the viewer as well. I think that worked out ok. thumb.gif

    You can sharpen it more and see what happens.

    Ha ha. Agape. A-gah-pay, with accent on the middle syllable is a Greek word for God's love.

    I was totally thrown off by the title! I was expecting something religious. rolleyes1.gifrofl

    I thought for sure someone would mentioned that. Since the young lady is also, seemingly, infatuated with the tea I thought it an appropriate play on words. Well done! thumb.gif
