Put an egg on a glass surface and rest a spoon on top. Shoot from a downward angle to catch the reflection for this effect.
PP: Gray scale, a lot of curves, resize, usm, border
Took me a while to setup my stone age lighting (controlling light for proper reflection) but only took a couple of shots to get what I liked.
Forgot to clean the spoon properly (duh!). I would have cloned out some dirt specs on the spoon, if it was allowed by editing rules.

Thank you very much everyone for nice comments throughout the challenge and votes. I am glad that I was able to surprise some people with this shot.
BTW Five 2s? I always expect a couple of trolls, but five people? I fail to understand the reason. May be I should have spelled out "reflection" in the title.
anyways thank you all again for your support and encouragement :)
interesting... Guessing black plexiglass. I think that its a tad underexposed. Your whites are still kinda grey. Good shit, but needs just a bit more work imho
Nice image... I love the lack of a visible "horizontal" (or what would have originally been the horizontal), and that the viewer is forced to deduce where it is from the reflection. I love images that make me think.
