 A bit of a fun shoot but actually learnt quite a bit about white balance. I had 3 candles in the picture which is obvious but I also had the bathroom light on and used the flash bounced off the ceiling as well as the "bath" was a bit too dark. So I 3 very different light sources and 3 different colour temperatures... so some advanced editing was very welcome.

Yes you can get Rubber Duckies that ar enot Yellow - mine daughter's one is Pink...
A cucumber may not be a real vegetable but it used as a vegetable so it is close enough for me for this challenge...
The string... well I guess it is for the bath plug...

Lucky Mrs. Ducky! Is that an emergency exit rope or is there something lurking in her bathwater?

The idea behind this is really good. Executing could be better- Lighting, comp etc. still nice :)
