 Everything was pushed to the last day. And this idea, too, got enunciated on the very last day.

Purchased 3 coconuts on my way back home, from office. Peeled them, adjusted their hair-styles (felt like a saloon-manager), and arranged them on a white board. After many permutations and combinations came up with this arrangement. Lighting is done by 2 off-camera strobes.

Oh! it is 4am. here, and it is (high-high) time to crash to bed. By, the way, my whole bed was a mess some time ago - with coir and coir-dust floating all around - enough coir to make a new mattress.

See you!
Hope you like it :-).

Love
Vikram

Funny and sad. Great topic, but I think a tiny bit of back lighting would have added dimension, especially to the dejected nut.

lovely detailed textures, lighting a little harsh on the left side, but I guess this was intended to highlight the out-casted?
