In this photo, the goal was to convey a feeling of warmth. I decided to take a picture of a mug of steaming coffee. Unfortunately, the steam didn’t show up very well in the final picture but you can still see a little bit of it. Also, although it’s not that clear in the photo, the mug is actually an Elmo mug which was my favorite mug to drink out of as a kid. Seeing this mug brings back warm memories of drinking hot chocolate from my childhood.
Additionally, I used the shade white balance to give the photo an overall warm and golden glow.
