I laid the crayons in a glass cake pan of sprite in window light. With camera on tripod I had to hold the them with on hand while I used my remote shutter release to take the picture. Cloned out stray bubbles.

I like how you used a different background for a typical water type of shot. Unexpected for sure. The colors are great and I love the bubbles!

water colors certianly seems to be a theme but they all seem well executed!

A very creative look at crayons - the image meets the subject matter dead on with subtle, yet detailed effect. A terrific demonstration of the creative process in meeting the challenge in a very unusual way. Should be a sure bet to win a ribbon or place high as a top twenty image. A couple of minor detail problems not worth mentioning because they don't appear until you really get a critical eye and examine the image closely. Well done.

Nice effective effect!! Love the way the bubbles cling to the edges/outside of the crayons

I love this concept but the background is out of place - is that wood? the bubble details on the crayons are great though!

This is so intriguing... knowing DPC, I am wondering what this idea would have looked like on a black background and an extreme close up or crop?
