Influenced by the September B&W side challenge. :) This was one of the first ideas I has when I read the challenge description.

A fun shot. I love the black & white and the shapes in this shot. I even like the heavy border. It adds to the cool clean effect of this shot. The reflections of the daisy on the cup sides are cool too. My eyes would prefer a tighter focus on the flower but back to bump you up to 8. Very nice.
very appealing graphic work, nice b/w tones. on second look, I ask myself why the daisy is drowning in milk - might have been better to use water or coffee for more contrast inside the cup
