Love the grainy look, and the way the milk mixed with the coffee. Very well done. :)

Awesome shot. I'm surprised I didn't see more coffee with milk/cream shots. This is the first!

Really like the crop and it appears to be clear and sharp. However, I don't find the b/w works here. I find b/w works best when there's just too many colours for a simple photo. Here you only have the colour of the table, the white cup and black coffee. I think the contrast of the coffe and milk would have given this shot an extra "punch".

I think this would have had a greater impact for me if it was in color. I like the idea though and the way you captured the milk spreading hrough the coffee.

Really nice b&w, great composition, just the right balace shades.
ONly the handle seems a little too hot white, otherwise great - 8

Great shot. The photo is a little grainy and a smidge out of focus, though. Still, it would be a great photo to hang above my coffee shrine in my kitchen.

Very cool concept. I think this one had a lot of potential ( esp for B/W as demonstrated here )
