[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Eggs that the neighbor's chickens keep laying on our horses hay. Rather than use photoshop to put in the reflections, I did it the old fashion way with black acrylic. I drilled a small dimple in the acrylic to keep the eggs upright. Light source is a fiber optic lamp diffused with a piece of regular 20lb bond paper.

A beautifully thought out and perfectly presented image. The apparent simplicity of the image defies the work that went into it.

A lot of hard work but producing the perfect result!
The colours and shadows are perfectly repeated in the reflection and produce a wonderful 3D effect of the eggs.
Sharpness and composition ... superb!

Always fun doing things the old-fashioned way, at least you had the instant gratification of digital to make it rewarding though!

Nice job and thanks for sharing the note - makes such a difference to have technical information offered, rather than withheld!

You're back! I thought maybe you had gone forever.

Nice clean shot!
