Hi Pierre,
An excellent capture, and welcome back! I agree that is a very tempting cup... What I cannot figure out here is the background but never mind, that's just me... Hehehehe

NIce cup and nice shot! I am always amazed by italian cappucinos, especially when barrista has been playing with the foam.
Shot is great, I love the way you used the spoon and table texture to create diagonal composition that emphasises the cup in the corner. DOF is decent, but shouldn't be that shallow, the whole sharp image might also be interesting, or you should sharp only the foam.
Still, this is awesome photo, TFS! I'll put it into some theme :)
Regards and welcome back Pierre!

Dear old professor! Welcome back! So you did experience with cappucino! Et on a découvert pourquoi ça donnait un peu de speed?
Voila un cliché très représentatif! Les petits cafés... sont légions làb-bas! Serait-ce un peu comme notre rue St-Denis mais à la grandeur de l'Italie ou j'exagère quelque peu? Et oui Kat nous a quitter. Ce qui est cruel effectivement!

Welcome home, Pierre. I like this coffee drink - the way the foam is ringed like the rings of a tree trunk. Nice warm colors.

Salut Pierre,
Il a l'air appétissant ce café dirrectement d'italie.. J'aime bien la composition avec le fond vert qui contraste et les cercles à la surface du café. Bon retour de vacance.

So I am not the only one to have been away, although it was longer for me. Didn't think to photograph my coffee in Italy. But this is a good shot of the greatest coffee in the world. I can almost see steam rising from it - or is that just the well controlled dof?

Salut vous deux. De retour...Et cette dernière tasse de café signifie beaucoup. J'avais fait la même chose l'an dernier, mais j'avais ajouté la tarte Tatin.
Ma première photo sur TL (P.22)
Tu me remets la senteur dans le nez.

Welcome back Pierre - looks like you had a good time. Great shot, simple and very attractive. Colours, composition and exposure all shout out "classy". Those circles in the coffee are almost too perfect to be true.

Pierre.
The simplicity of a photograph makes him strongly. The simplicity of a photograph is terrible to make difficult. But these have both elements in itself and it is therefore enjoy the result terribly. Frans

Oh dear! Your last cappuccino in Italy - just for a while, I hope Pierre. I loved Italy when I was there, and want to go back one day.
I can dream. Good photo-memory for you to look at and taste the coffee
Well done.

Ahhh, the famous Italian cappucino or any coffe in this respect. The Italian cusine is my favourite and my daughter (who is a fussy eater) will eat Italian dishes any time (well, most of the time:) Beautiful photo you have taken and I think that the colours in the swirl are fantastic.

Shelly:)

PS well, now I'm going to make a cup of my own:))

I don't see your name/s on the list for the COFFEE CHALLENGE!!! It is NOT too late if you wish to play.
This one qualifies but "wouldn't stand a snowball's" so you'd have to try a little harder. Want to play?
Feb 8 is the posting date.

I love the frame, it really brightens the picture up alot.
