yea, i know this is ain't the best of entries, and it's probably not going to score too well, but I thought I should keep up the momentum and just submit something.
On a brighter note, i just got some lights for a lighting setup :D (though as you can i clearly need to fine tune it :P, especially in terms of getting colour even :P)

hey all, thanks for the nice comments... it honestly did a helluva lot better than i expected... i just thought i should enter something, and wanted to try my lighting setup out :P
Nice lighting, technically very good except for the flash (?) reflection in the spoon, but the message didn't work for me. Humorous, yes, but too cheesy for this challenge.
I'm gonna score you higher just because of a unique approach to the challenge. Great whimsey. I think I might have taken the pic from a lower angle, so the duck's head was visible over the top of the bowl.
Technically this is a good shot - nice and crisp, well composed and excellent color control. The lighting is well done and the perspective is good as well. However, if you had used a real hair or had a bug floating in the soup or even the spoon with soup and the hair/bug in it THAT would be unexpected. Also, with the spoon off to the side and clean (as in obviously not used yet) doesn't help. There is no element of finding anything. If you were in an eatery the duck would have never made it out of the kitchen. But the duck, to me, sorry, just doesn't cut it. It would never be anything even remotely plausible in any eatery.
