Balanced Egg by 30pics4jackiesdiamond

Balanced Egg

Wendy challenged me to do a reflection using any medium of my choice. I immediaely thought about doing this egg on forks classic, but the clever @salza beat me to it - so not tagging it for the get pushed challenge.

Had fun balancing the egg and then doing a spot of playing with processing sliders so this isn't sooc, and am not using for get pushed
@salza it's not easy to balance the egg is it!!??

I like how your lighting adds a mysterious atmosphere. Plus you are correct, it's not easy balancing an egg!

ps Blu tack (other makes available) has so many uses.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond I was using a mirror which may result in the clear image. The piece of glass I tried is from an old picture frame and is one of those weird ones that stops reflections. I forget what it's called but many years ago it was recommended to me when I was having needlework framed. Wouldn't use it now as it dulls the colout!

@salza this is picture frame glass on top of black cloth and daylight from window!!!

It's great not being very educated on photography - I failed to recognize this as a classic - I think it's just clever and such fun and such a great result!!

I am afraid I challenged her. You know rivers and lakes make a great medium.

@joansmor it's a brilliant challenge and I have a millpond nearby, but it's not very calm or smooth at the moment!! I love Sally's @salza 's version so much more.
