The First and Second Cup

My first two cups of the Year of Coffee were brewed at home with the start button being pressed at midnight on the first. The idea of posting photos of each and every cup I consume this year just seemed to make sense. More truth and a reason will hopefully be revealed.

the first cup

This is my first cup of The Year of Coffee.

It is my usual – Peets Major Dickason’s Blend. I add a packet of that yellow thing and some half and half. The cup was given to me by a co-worker and features Van Gogh’s Starry Night. Starry Night hangs in the MoMA and dates back to 1889. The coffee by contrast was hand roasted in early December 2004.

The second cup.

The cups are shot on my desk just to the left of my keyboard. Various cables and accessories are also shown. The first cup was shot with a Sony DCR PC109. The second with my UX50. The shots were pulled into my Powerbook via USB and processed in iPhoto.

This image looks different from the rest. It is shot with our PC109 in stead of the UX50 and the composition is new.

Presh get the photog’s credit for 42. She even poured it and mixed it and delivered it to me in the server room. Thanks!
