Taped some black thread to this cleaned out egg, put a light source on the upper left, then snapped it! I hope to get a 6 for this shot. I would like to have changed it so that my ceiling fan light reflection was out of it.

Challenge: Met the challenge perfectly!

Technique: Very clever. Thanks for explaining how you did this! Your lighting seems just a bit dark, but it still works. I think your title is hilarious and very fitting.

Settings: Your settings appear right on. Maybe a little post-challenge editing could smooth some of the noise on the egg and the bowl. You may want to bump up your lighting, as this shot isn't as "fresh" as it could be.

Overall: A great shot! I'm sorry you didn't get the 6 you wanted, but there were so many great entries in this challenge! I really like your originality in ALL your photos.

I believe a more symetric placement of the bowl would have been better.

good shot, I can imaging the mess afterward! That alone has to be worth a few points extra!! *LOL*

Perfect timing, good capture. Perhaps a slightly more interesting looking soup, for the purpose of the picture, would have been nice.

Hope your lens didn't need too much cleaning after this one :-) Clever idea, great timing. Photo needs a level adjustment, too dark.
