 Old fashioned carving fork. 'Yellow Button' flowers on the end of each prong.

pp; nudge rotate, crop, slight contrast, cloned out small section of background, selectively softened, sharpened, pushed and smudged small amounts, color dropped the metal and used as frame color.

The 'left eye' could have used more pp work to lighten it etc, but becomes too 'fake' then and I do not want to 'rely' on pp. Will learn from this and try to get the lighting better 'straight out of camera' in the future.

focal length: 6mm

Post Challenge
For those who didn't 'get' the title, I named the fork 'Ryan Outloud' ('For Crying Out Loud' - play on words)

Way too weird idea. I think this would have been better on a black background. Whatever it is that is holding the fork up would kind of blend in then.
