"Adopted"
From the archives...
My apologies, I've been swamped this week. I'll get back to daily photos as soon as I can.

This shot was taken for the 'Egg' challenge at www.DPChallenge.com.
I tried to come up with something creative to do with an egg...
I like the results here.

Nikon Coolpix 5700
1/54s f/7.4 at 27.3mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

very good!
I try to do what you do with shots that are a little bland on the lighting side.
I have much to learn to. Very much like this bg

Very creative and technically perfect IMO. I also love the title.

Thank you Pall, Patrick, and Jarrett! I moved this image along with its original to my 'Photo Retouching' gallery. I put in an explanation there about how I made this image. Most people are surprised when they see the original. I like to take drab, not captured correctly images and make something nice out of them in Photoshop. It is kind of a challenge for me!
