"A French press, also known as a cafetière, сafetière à piston, Cafeteria, press pot, coffee press, or coffee plunger, is a coffee brewing device patented by Italian designer Attilio Calimani in 1929." Wikipedia

"Something new - make it into art"

My son asked for a "French Press" coffee maker for Christmas which is my "new" subject for this challenge. I shot it with my best lens and then used a process called "Heat Map" on it in Pixlr. To finish it off I added a "Dropped Shadow" frame to it in PicMonkey. I hope you like!

Here's a favorite French song to go along with it:

Nice! Really nice! =) The composition and square aspect ratio are especially the things that does a lot, and then the somewhat unnatural green and blue makes this very POP ART!
