I love this one! I like the contrast between black and white. // Me encanta ésta! Me gusta el contraste entre el negro y el blanco.

David Caballero Gracias por el comentario, Paloma, inicialmente la composición era sobre fondo blanco y la foto en claves mucho más altas, pero fui experimentando y el fondo negro daba este perfil tan bueno de la taza, especialmente con iluminación desde atrás, y decidí dejarlo así. El control de las reflexiones fué algo más difícil para dejar algún dibujo más interesante, sobre todo en la cuchara. Un saludo afectuoso

Paloma Benito Ha valido la pena todo el esfuerzo, es precioso el resultado... Felicidades, tienes muy buen ojo.

Great light
... and contrasts are close to perfecion.

David Caballero Thank you very much, Daniel. The initial idea was in high keys with all in white, but it was kind of boring. Then I tested a number of colours and ended up with a black background that helped much in outlining the cup shape and enhanced light. Main lighning source is located in the back, as you can observe. Cheers.

beautifully crafted - strong commentary

David Caballero Thank you very much, Linda. The commentary is a follow-up of my experience travelling around the globe, as many other human aspects it is cruel but real.

Your commentary is too true. Well crafted and captured image.

David Caballero Thanks Anne, uneven distribution of food in the world is an issue that our species must take care of, sooner or later

Like this in screening good to see it make it. Well lit.

David Caballero Thank you Richard, I love that you liked it, indeed lightning took a while to setup and control, playing around with different configurations. Out of around 100 pics, just three or four were just usable, you know.
