Thanks for the great votes!
This was my second entry, and it did worlds better than my first.
Kinda funny, this was a total last-minute deal. It was about 9:30 on Tuesday night, and I figured I look around for stuff in the kitchen to shoot for the challenge. I pulled out the container of eggs...hmmm...maybe. I threw a carrot on top of them to represent the Alone part of the crowd. Nah...put the eggs back in the fridge...
I started looking through the drawers and found that egg beater. Bingo!
Brought the eggs out, layed 'em all out on the counter top with the beater in the middle. Guesstimated the settings on my camera, angled my flash to the ceiling and took a few shots. Had to go with this angle, since I didn't want the backsplash to show up.
Processed it and submitted it. I was all done within about 30 minutes from idea to posting.
I saw the dang carrot crumb on the front egg when it was too late. I was tired and didn't think I'd be rated this highly when I first put it up. Too bad I didn't clean that carrot off...I might've bumped myself up a couple of spots!
brilliant concept and absolutely fantastic exposure. the shadows created by superb controlled lighting give foreground-eggs almost 3-D like effect. definitely a podium candidate. 10
That whisk is adorable. I really like how the eggs surround him but maintain much more space around him than from each other. He does have an out; perhaps he should take it ;-) Very nicely lit shot, in addition to the careful composition. Only nit is a speck of something on the bottom of the 2nd egg from the right that needs scraping off.
