Two Ways to Crack an Egg by 30pics4jackiesdiamond

Two Ways to Crack an Egg

Contining my theme of cutlery, alternating high and low key and learning what my camera does and not swearing at Eff-inity processing.

I wish now I'd had the egg in the foreground but got sort of sidetracked to redo it after viewing on screen. Whilst eating my props, I broke a back molar tooth. Advice from dentist - use a clean nail file to remove sharp bits and painkillers when they become necessary.
Very cool effect.
I hope that you are not going to suffer any pain before you manage to get to see the dentist.

Interesting effect.
Moral of story - don’t eat your props! I know that you are partial to an egg cup. Hope that the tooth doesn’t give you any bother.

This one had me really studying the details. Imaginative effects you've used here.
(Adored your latest comment on my cello series, fav'ing with just the top portion of the picture in view.... :) Funny about the intentful watching. I feel rather "stalk-ish" myself now when I go to a performance and stare at the cellists with what probably looks like an unhealthy interest.)

My breakfast every morning! Smiled at your commentary.

I like cutlery as a theme choice, you're getting a nice variety of photos!

You really go the extra mile Jackie, wish I had a fraction of your determination and patience! Pity about the props tasting so good that you broke a tooth! Hope you get to your dentist soon.

such an interesting image!

I love your image here - is it a very clever composite? No - I just read your tags - in camera double exposure. It worked so well. It seems terribly unfair that you cracked a tooth eating a soft boiled egg and toast! I hope it doesn't give you too much trouble. :)

Thank you all. I rang my dentist, their advice to use a nail file to rub sharp edges and take painkillers when required. No dentists in UK currently allowed to work, that'll teach me to chew on my props!!

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Oh No! How dreadful for you! Interesting double exposure though
April 20th, 2020  
Do it yourself dentistry now! Nice effect.

So creative, I love the results of this!! I'm so sorry about your tooth. I hope you're able to help it feel better soon.

Our dentist sent out notice he would work emergencies. Anything with pain I’d say is in that category. Once when I lifted a crown off with a caramel late on a Friday, the dentist said to get dental wax at the drug store. That protected it and helped block pain until he could reset it on Monday. I don’t know if that would work on a ragged tooth. Hope you can get help soon or maybe a new dentist.

Great egg capture sorry to hear about your tooth. My dentist sent me an E Mail of how to do it yourself in an emergency. I am being very careful what I eat as I have a crown that occasionally falls out

Oh my Jackie! So sorry to hear about your tooth! I eat my props too of course. :)
April 21st, 2020  
Oh dear... one of the risks of the trade, I guess!
