 I started by taking a picture of the cutlery, all together side by side on a black mounting board.

Then I took a shot of my hand, there wasn't enough light indoors, so I stuck my hand out of the window and shot!

Next, I took the top of a steel bin in our bedroom, for the 'join' between the fingers and cutlery. Again, not enough light, so I held the bin out the window.If you look closely, you can see the window I stuck it out of!

For the flag, I created it in Adobe Illustrator, printed onto glossy photo paper, and photographed it by the window.

A little disturbing..lol. I think the reflections in the silverware could have been more carefully chosen to be less distracting. Good work overall.

I'll bet trying to get the reflections to match was a bitch.

Points for originality. Points off for the hideous logo.

Clever and very believable. Hope the masses appreciate it. I think it's really masterful and well conceptualized. 8
