I am not going to judge this on techn. merit. The statement is clean , simple, and honest. Thank you very much!

Poor focus, and very grainy. The milk's kinda ironic, no?

Interesting twist on the darkness theme. Looking into the cup of black coffee is like looking into the darkness of and overworked life that just repeats itself over and over every day. It is a certainty that many voters will NOT see the darkness in this image. The simplicity and perspective of this image is it's strength.

A bit grainy. Higher speed may have improved the grain.

Well composed. Little too grainy IMO.

hmmm, this reminds me of a poster i saw years ago...i would have liked the cup and creamer to be whiter, more contrast.

That cup helps dispell my morning darkness! Like the photo, and it's graininess. Works for me...it evokes that out-of-the darkness feeling when I wake up.
