I violated one of the photography rules here by having a blurry foreground element (the cup) as I instead chose to focus on the plate (specifically the De Mello “faces”).

I think it works, hopefully you do too.

I photographed this today as part of my weekly photo shoot for De Mello ( http://hellodemello.net/ ).

I used the Leica 75mm Summarit, which is the most balanced 75mm lens Leica has ever made (taking into account both size and performance).

If you’re interested, you can read my review of this wonderful lens here ( https://prosophos.com/2012/01/26/the-leica-75mm-summarit-f2-5/ ).
