Last minute idea while buying perfect fruit for a regular "bowl on table" shot when I came across those little umbrellas in aisle 4. The sunlight came from a slave flash using a homemade paper funnel.

Underrated and basically robbed. I put on this on a par creativity-wise with the blue winner. I didn't get to vote in this challenge but you'd have got a 9 or 10 from me.

Not the best "photograph" in the challenge, but a really cute idea and it made me chuckle. 7

Cute, but this could have used a much more interesting angle.
05/06/2008 09:01:32 AM

Very original. Love the trees. It is a nitpick but the beach towels really need to be perfect rectangles to pull of the effect.
05/02/2008 11:41:10 PM
Too funny! I like your idea!

Cute little set up, the lighting looks nice, just not bright enough and maybe a bit too dramatic. I could see this in a magazine though so i like it.
05/02/2008 03:20:45 AM
Like the idea here!
05/01/2008 09:18:12 PM

Haha. Great concept. What this might lack in execution, it more than makes up for in creativity.
04/30/2008 04:25:37 PM
lol, very good
04/30/2008 01:56:54 PM
what a great idea! raisin in the sun and grape saving its water in a shade. i always like when i see the use of brain/concept in an image. should have done well in homemade landscapes too.
04/30/2008 11:54:34 AM
dont care too much for the greens surround it since it's supposed to be at a beach, but it's really cute.
04/30/2008 11:42:16 AM
outstandingly funny, and a great in focus, clean crisp shot 10
04/30/2008 06:40:15 AM
