NO! I think it is great the way it is!!! Don't kill the cops cups!
No, I really mean it, it adds to the photo in a strange way.... Love it. I'm heading for Flickr to add it to my faves!
I did not notice the cup before you said it. Now it is there, and it holds my attention and focus... As it is the main subject of the photo.... And it makes the player even more mysterious, intense....
Wonderful shot Rob and I don't mind the cups at all either. I did think his collar was his hand for a second and then noticed his other right hand! Fabulously intense though.
