I shot this on a D70 with an SB800 flash through some tracing paper. The synchronising of the hammer and the flash was done with some string, a clothes peg and so 2-core cable

great action shot. and a cleaver way to crack open the eggs. Well done. How many eggs did you have to crack to get this shot and who was lucky enought to do the cleanup
OK. Normally I am not a strict interpreter of the challenge descriptions but in this case I have to take off points for your entry which to me is not a recipe but an excellent stop motion. I do this because your entry could easily have been saved for a more appropriate competition. It is not time sensitive as you could have produced it at any time. It is a great photo nonetheless but I just don't think that special effects (without a recipe) should win this one. 5
While this is a very cool shot I don't see how it is appropriate for this challenge.
Challenge Description: Prepare 1 or more dishes from a recipe. Photograph before, during or after and use that as your submission. You should put the recipe in the details section of the submission.
