 Again a lot of ideas and boiled down to this. It started with an idea to build a castle out of sugar cubes lit from within, not striking as "Sugar" I moved on. To a tiny espresso cup with a giant bowl of sugar cubes next to it. Then filling the espresso cup with sugar cubes and the bowl with coffee. Then filling the cup with sugar cubes, and coffee. While shopping for props it knocked me in the back of the head "Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down, the medicine go down..." and I knew that was what I wanted to shoot.

I hope you all enjoy.

Nice stop action and I like your choice of depth of field. That medicine bottle is perfect! Something about the composition isn't working for me though. Maybe if the spoon and sugar were coming in from a little more of an angle...I'm not sure what it is exactly...

tough shot to attempt, somehow it comes across as a little flat or bland
