Just for fun....my own little egghead (husband)

[Rachel Foster]

I was given a homework assignment to shoot...eggs. So I had a little fun. Thanks to Steven Lifson (husband) for being a good sport.

ISO 400, 50 mm, f/5.6, 1/125.

Good sport

i'd say he is a good sport. I like the ambient light in this.

 

[Rachel Foster]

Well, I kept working on the egg. I almost like this one.

ISO 400, f/7.1, 85 mm, 1/100.

Rachel, consider exploring that egg, whole or broken, with your macro lens. Getting close to the textures and shapes of broken egg shell, with or without dramatic lighting, can be rewarding.

Just sayin' ya know...

 

[Rachel Foster]

I did the macro, but haven't gotten it nailed yet.

Rachel

your first shot is amusing and very creative- good job on that idea for the egg on the bald head-I would think maybe the whole face or profile would be better-dunno-

your second shot is awesome IMHO-I love the colors so mellow and so crisp a shot
for me it's art! very cool*

Charlotte-

 

[Rachel Foster]

Thanks, Charlotte. I'm having a lot of fun with this.


Charles...more like this?

 

[Charles L Webster]

There you go! The composition is a bit centered and the light bit at the right distracts a bit, but you're on the right road.

 

[Rachel Foster]

burn the light a bit?

 

[Charles L Webster]

you could try that

I'm sure there are sophisticated masking techniques that someone could tell us about also

 

[Rachel Foster]

I'll let you know what the teacher says about the shots. Thanks.

In the meantime

I'm having a lot of fun with this.

You mean you threw more eggs on him? (JJ)
I like the effect on the first one. Nice light angle, and that lens-effect of the eggwhite.
Hmm, they say eggs are good for the hair
