I have none to show but these guys are pretty whippy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dhgZ9xbqwwU&NR=1

This is where you can really see the art and the technique.

They really make it look easy.

I'll try and post some of my stuff later. Hoping to get good enough to compete in competitions soon. My friend is competing in Chicago this February, 1st place is $5k.

Here's a couple. The second one is an upside down latte.

Me too. How humbling.

I have not studied the techinque and never got more than a few flimsy looking ripples on my best efforts. I explain away to not making 40-50 lattes/day. Is it possible to excel at latte art when you're held to 1-2 tries/day? What does one need to focus on first - milk texture? C'mon, the Don - help out a rookie. How about holding a little workshop over here?

Milk texture is key.
