Excellent question :-) Here we go:
- skin = endive
- nose + cheek = potato
- chin = pear
- mouth = tomato
- base of the neck = slices of cheese
- border of the hat = zucchini
- hair = pasta
- eyes = green and black olives + green pepper
All of these were fixed on a metallic structure with thin white wires.

I wonder why you did not complete the effect by placing a 5th Speedlight inside the fridge's real light fixture. As it is now it looks obviously in the 'off' state. I am surprised you omitted this since you could have easily accomplished the task by disassembling the fridge to uncover the guts of the fixture, changing the fixture acrylic diffuser to a larger one to accommodate the Speedlight, rigging a radio trigger inside the roof of the fridge to make sure the Speedlight triggers in sync and then re-assembling the fridge, all of which you could have quickly accomplished in no more than 16 hours of work, not counting the time required for the reverse process to retrieve your Speedlight and the radio trigger after taking the picture. Come on, it is not like you needed to truck the fridge over to a lake and build a special table in the middle of the lake. I am afraid you are beginning to slack. Congratulations on getting the blue despite the blatant omission, but please try harder next time ;-) |
You are so right about that. The true reason for this slack is kinda sad: I don't have the money for a 5th Speedlight. So as I am writing this, I am training a dozen of glowworms to deliver a burst of light on demand, but my cats are eating them regularly, so it is not THAT easy. |

Fridge encounters of the 3rd kind. by aKiwiComment: At first, I was afraid it was a new kind of French cheese: I'm happy to see you used a smoke machine ;-)
Congratulations on your ribbon, great idea! |

Black and white? Or did you want the colour? |
I tried that too, but I didn't feel like there was any valid reason for a B&W version (except to match better the challenge's subject, but the picture wasn't better imo). |

Thank you! Yes, I did think about that, but as weird as it sounds, no grocery was selling white eggs in my area.
So I ended up doing it with brown/orange tones, which probably cost me some points. |

Surf by RamblinRComment: These pastel tones are wonderful, I love how you manage to render them. Lovely mood. Congratulations on your ribbon! |

Morning Frostby MargaretNetComment: Congratulations Margaret, I'm glad to see that your work paid off :-) it's always tricky to mix cold and warm tones in the same picture, very well done. |
