 You will not believe it if I will tell you that this,,Moon'' it is actually a ...potato!!!I've used a picture of the Earth from the internet,printed an anchored from the radio antenna.The ,,photo studio'' was the bedroom and like background I have used a black curtain.The ,,love-potato moon\'\' was placed on a plastic bottle covered again with a black curtain.I've used two sources of illumination.In CS2 I have made adjustments of:levels(auto),brightness/contrast;cropped and resized for the competition.

Greetings from the Critique Club!
I congratulate you on the imagination and set up that this shot took. ALtho I will say I immediately saw it as a potato.
The composition is clean and simple and brings good focus to your subject. But I find the whole thing a little OOF.
The use of shadows is nice, but it has an odd colour cast to the entire shot. Perhaps this is on purpose to add to the other wordly feel, but imho it is not that effective here.
Great Imagination!

That must make for an interesting eclipse! Is that a bowling ball and a potato?
