I was playing around (in my head) all week with the idea of "Sammy Sosa's Kitchen" or "home run" or something like that. I got stuck on that idea. But I didn't get to try making a couple picts until Sunday afternoon. Using artificial lights and setups is not natural to me :)
Made on tripod, indoors, artificial light (one modeling light, only way I've figured out how to use this light), timed exposure, manual mode; I moved the egg beater once the shutter opened.
Shot RAW, opened in PSCS3 without adjustments.
In PSCS3,
- Cropped slightly
- Adjusted curves
- Applied Photomatix tonemapping on copy layer, and blended in normal at ??%
- Ran through light touch of draganizer
- Flipped horizontal
- Cleaned up colours
- Ran through variations
- Resized, sharpened, saved for web. |

| Good idea for the challenge. I tried doing something similar but with a paint brush but couldn't get it to work well. This came out pretty good. |

| Great technicals!! Love the lighting, the motion blur, the composition, the colors! I can't decide whether or not the fold is distracting or interesting... The idea was interesting, although it doesn't make much sense for a whisk to not be whisking... |
