An ultimate last minute entry I believe. Almost everything went wrong while building this composition. I wanted to do the DPC news portion in colour but at the last moment my Canon PIXMA 318 stopped working showing some cartridge error! As one cardtridge was over the whole of the device did not work! I could not even scan! After spoiling a lot of tiime I settled for a laser printout. Pasted the self created news article on a news paper and shoot along with a breakfast setup. Thank to my friend Rakesh for lending his lights.
On PP:
As the colour of the pasted paper was somewhat different I had to try a lot of curves and adjustment layers referring the Basic Challenge rules twice. With my very limited knowledge of Photoshop it was quite difficult.

Mmmmm toast spam eggs and spam and spam
The lighting just doesnt do anything for me, composition would have been better from the side of low on the table for some field of depth.
WHATS WITH THE CAPTION ON THE NEWSPAPER!
China orders shut down of DPChallenge, HA
That better not have been done in digital post-production...
This shot clearly depicts morning, and I love the news article (though I would guess many vote too quickly to notice those small details). Something about the whole setup seems funny though once I start thinking about it. Fork seems used, but the only food eaten is the toast, and the foods all seem so spread out on the plate. And the coffee seems too untouched (isn't that usually the first thing people go for?), and set too close to the eater. But overall, a cute shot.. I'd love to read that entire article! :P
