 Rubber duck sitting on a shot glass in a pot of water. Drop in dry ice and start shooting.

minimal edits, crop, USM, curves, save for web

This was a last minute entry. I hope it does well. I think my woody entry would have been very clever. I just could not get the lighting right. I'll try again at a future date.

This is my favorite variation on the soup theme. The mist from the boiling soup is captured wonderfully well.

Nice shot but it doesn't really come across that it's soup - more like "Steamed Duck"
