Hmm..! Just slightly like the egg scene from Alien - makes my breakfast egg so much more scary than usual. Like the misty fog layer - just add a green laser layer, and your there

You are very good at so many types of picture - just leafing through your shots. Keep going. I don't know what work you do, but I would think you could do this full time - If you don't run out of inspiration or zap!

Plant was just pushed through neck of bulb and planted with a chopstick.
I used a piece of match on a thread to hold it at that angle. Placed the match in the neck and where you see the metal curve at the end allowed it to be wedged in.

this very good photo and idea and execution, maybe the best one.
okay the execution could be a little better in my opinion but the frame is what killed the photo for sure,
if i voted i would voted it 6 just because of the frame which is way over the top, i mean it is absolutely not needed here

nice result at the end :-)

I used to know a guy who made these cool glass "mushroom" earrings which looked very similar to the effect you got with this one.

I've tried to create that "mushroom cloud" effect with two liquids myself -- your result is far better than anything I've gotten. :-)

Excellent image, Owain. Love the colours and it's a very creative idea (must try it ;-)

Good use of a yellow border--it keeps the negative space at the top from being unbalanced.
