 This was fun. Took this at work with a colleague of mine who also participates here [user]Jean_Muc[/user].
It might get hammered as a DNMC as it isn't in the fridge, but it should be interpreted as something in there wanting to come out.
I Put an Elinchrom rx 600 in there on full power, and used a smoke machine to add a little smoke. Unfortunately my son had added too much coconut flavour to the fluid and it Stank of sickly sweet coconut.
Processing is a crop, de-saturate and play with the curves.. all in lightroom.
I tool this at F20 as it was a sunny day, and I was trying to make it look dark and gloomy.

FABULOUS! And very well done!

Congrats on your ribbon and wonderful shot, and... the memories of a fun shoot. Perhaps the memories/experience together is the best part... I sometimes think so.

I normally don't say stuff like this, so please, anyone who reads this don't start a we hate Crowis thread. . .

This picture should have taken the blue by a landslide. It was cheated by a cult of personality shot which is making me all the more believe that any photo that has a recognizable face needs to be kicked by the SC. Short story, you were robbed. Love the pic.

I really like this as a photo, just not so much for this challenge. The only thing the photo shows is in your fridge is the jar...
