My daughter and I have been inspired by the many "egg shots" we have seen in the various PAD galleries. Tonight's image was a fluke for one of our experiments. I know that it is definitely overexposed in the middle but the effect itself was so cool I decided that this was the image to post! It was achieved by first shining the flashlight behind the eggs and then moving the flashlight over the eggs and swirling it around them and the whisk. The act of "transferring the beam" to the vertical position must have made the "smoke" effect! This was shot with ISO 100, f7.8 and 27.6 seconds for the shutter.

Eggsellent effect - I really thought it was smoke. As you say - definitely worth posting even with the overexposed part.
