One of the main ways people relax is to sit with a nice cup of coffee. And when we relax, we often let our minds wander. So when you're relaxing with your coffee, look at it, and you may see figures such as hearts, trees, or animals.
We might see those figures in the steam, the foam of an espresso, or the swirls after adding cream. Whatever the case, take a photo of it and send here! The figure must be clearly visible!
"...........and you may see figures such as hearts, trees, or animals."
Not wishing to be difficult, but the guidelines are looking for something more specific than just drops like this I think. An excellent capture other than that!

Thank you Ade...would this me "closer" to theme In your opinion??? I hope it passes...thanks. I'm not quite as "artistic" as a few of our other authors (they shall remain nameless, but you know who they are) so this is going to have to do...LOL
Thank you....after about 200 shots, this was somewhere in the middle and was overlooked at first. I guess there is still somewhere in our high-tech photography world for 'good-ol fashioned' plain dumb-luck...LOL!
debdy, it is not off theme at all, the coffee is covering the lilies......! the guideline states....."Whatever the case, take a photo of it and send here! The figure must be clearly visible".......the operative words being...."whatever the case....."

The figure on the left is a lily, yes, while the one on the right is an open-petaled rose. Yes, this is taking the guidelines of the contest to their very limits, but I still feel it is on theme and a creative take on the contest. Thanks for the kudos!
stunning shot
UMMM....Yea...just Thanks Author...Thanks, Might as well just put away the camera and forget about this contest! Phenomenal! Love it!!
Awesome - great idea Is it a glass table lit from underneath?
Nope it's a countertop, it's lit from very low so the light would rake across it.
this is awesome! what is that metal striped thing though? It takes away from the cup and coffee spill. This is still great though!
The metal thing is a french press which i used to make the coffee with.
I should have known, well done author
