I can really see this in a huge matted frame hanging on a wall at Starbucks! I think I've seen a version of this one in fact :) Very well done. . .and anything coffee related always evokes well-being and peace for me :)

OK, cool idea, but no Zen. Try having whole beans next to a pile of ground beans, then it would have worked out.

A great shot, would be very pretty on a kitchen display. The minimal use of color (or lack thereof) and minimal lighting works for the good in this one. Great job from the 'Great Job Baggie'!
