What about a space scene on a colour change mug ................ might look quite effective if the image is right?

I like it, Think it would make a good Mug.

I did think the image looked a bit noisy and fussy, so I had a quick play with it in photoshop.

So a bit of noise reduction, some extra contrast and a bit of sharpening later....

but thats just my thoughts.

That kind of thing would look great on one of those black mugs with the white panel that goes around it.

problem is I dont have any WOW mugs yet.... Its for someone at work so just wanted to make it look nice... I asked her give me an idea of what you want on it... she said "anything" which is always a great help and description... ah well she gets what she is given... as long as she pays for it :-)... I pressed one last night and in my state of lack of sleep after a night shift... I did not notice I cropped the image... ARG!!! I think it will pass but Im only 90% happy with it..

I've just been watching Endeavour dock with the ISS, some amazing shots could've been had for your mug
