One of the best. I just wanted to give it at least the 10 that it deserves if I did not have the time during the week to comment on it. Not that it needed. I'm sure it has lots of comments anyway. 10 and congratulations!

I like the idea but the shadow is a little distracting and the coffee bean is a little out of focus.

A bit flat on interest - not a big fan of the background and it looks like it could be sharpened a bit...

The lighting is maybe too much on the side for my taste and the focus seems to be on the background. other than that the idea is great

the bean should be more in focus, the background looks cool

I like how the curves in the background miror the curve of the bean. The glare of the lights really blows out the details on the bean, and the bean isn't in focus.

The bean seems out of focus to me. The background looks sharper focus than the bean.

seems out of focus, and top lighting the been seems a little harsh on it, groovy backdrop and composition.

background is distracting to me. For some reason I keep wanting to cock my head to the side to look at it.

Different from the rest of the field. I would have upped the vote a point if the bean had been in focus instead of the background.

parts of bean appears out of focus, should have used a macro function.

Focus seems to be on the background, not on the coffee bean.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The background is in focus, and the expresso bean isn't. Nice lighting and it could have worked very well, but not like this. (5)

Good concept but your focus is off and soft. 4

I like the wavy line pattern. The bean itself seems to be out of focus, though, and I think I would have liked to have seen the bean in sharp detail, and the background out of focus. I think the composition would have been more effective with several beans, or a small pile of beans, rather than the one lonely little bean.
