Brilliant! Looks like they were all sitting on little bar stools, minding their business before they got wacked!! Reply »

you should change your picture name to "no mercy". amazing shot. Reply »

Brilliant Reply »

this is an AWESOME shot! Do you know what would have made it absolutely perfect for the theme though? If you showed the other eggs already shot down in the pic also. Hmmm, but maybe the detail of the egg wouldn't be as great as it is being close as it is...hmmm. THIS IS AWESOME! Reply »

Congrats on your 1st Reply »

This HAD TO BE IT!!!
Well deserved! Congrats! Reply »

Nicely on theme Author, well done with the lighting balance, very good work... Reply »

Thank you! Does someone sees a pinkish tone in the image? it appeared when i uploaded so i'm thinking of compensating for it in post. Reply »

THUMBS UP! Reply »

no pinky thing..everything's fine..all the colors are balance

I can't see any pink tinge either. It a great, fun portrait. Love the little boy in the BG too waiting for his trike to come back Reply »

Whoa. Colors look very greenish. am i the only one having this problem? Reply »

Don't look green to me. Great shot. Reply »

Perfecto!.... and i like Reply »

actually, you will get a greenish overtone sometimes with long exposures when certain parts have a different lighting. It's a white balance issue. You don't have consistent lighting over your scene. Sometimes you'll get different tones with different lengths of exposures. Reciprocity is a wonderful thing. Reply »

It looks like a human eye! Awesome! Reply »

Amazing Reply »

Thank you for favs and comments! The original image doesn't look as greenish as this one. But i guess it's not that huge of a problem Reply »

This is an awesome entry.. and I like the title.. Reply »

Very cool! My only wish is that the street lamp wasn't in the scene. Otherwise, Fantastic! Reply »

It's true, it looks like an eye !!! Great ! Reply »

Same as McCormick, i think the lamp is off-putting. but I like the location and use of lens very good Reply »

I'm sure It was shot after the egg . Awesome again Reply »

Awesome...!!!!!!! Reply »

superb!!! what was the shoter's speed? Reply »

Ok... I am starting to worry about your neighbor's safety here!lol Reply »

Thanks for the comments everybody!
@Perathor. the shutterspeed was 1/6400s @ 8 FPS. and F/8. (i think)
@Mperri. they're just fine. i told the to wear helmet and bulletproof vests so no harm done.

That darn gun again, if you keep making images like this, we might have to turn it on you. LOL.

nice Reply »

Congrats for your third place, Lodd! Reply »

Congrats Lodd! Reply »

Good job! No stacking Reply »

Thank you Kyricom! Nope, no stacking. This is right by a lake with not any town near to it. therefore i could go for a such long exposure. Reply »

you are a very brave man! 17mins in one frame..?? with your Digital SLR...?? hopefully it did not burn your sensor..nice photo! Reply »

I heard this one before...
That your sensor can burn with a long exposure.
I shot a 30 min exposure at f:6 (3 shots) but nothing happened.
Is that a "photo legend" or is it possible?
This 8 mm lens are great author.I must have one!!! Reply »

I've done 100+ minute exposures with my sensor still going strong.
I've also tried pointing a laser directly at the sensor without burning it.
Dang those Nikonsensors are tough! Reply »

I do agree with you, they are tough! Now i can see why Canonians prefer to stack their photos in this contest Reply »

I've taken 25 min exposures on my canon 7d and 5d mark ll with no problems... Reply »

Yep - I have taken a 64 minute exposure on my entry level Canon with no problems. Sounds like one of those urban myths to me. The idea of stacking is better image quality (less noise) Reply »

Amazing!
Reply »

The reason why i didn't stack was i didn't knew about that technique at the time.
I've pointed a laser into my sensor. how bout' that Canonians? :P Reply »

pfft! You getting any older yet? Good to see you around.
Nice job and congrats buddy. Reply »

Thank you! @c-dawg:Not getting that much older. But i've examinated school and start working as a part time pressphotographer part time carpenter Reply »

Damn! Somebody beat me to this?!? Nice shot and lighting author, really well done. Reply »

Fabulous! Reply »

This is just great author. I only wish I had a camera (and operator) capable of such a shot! Reply »

Oh me too...I agree with Ray...amazing shot author! Reply »

What isn't amazing about this shot? The lighting, the action, the texture on the ground and even the choice of mug...all work together perfectly and takes the thought of making tea or coffee from the mundane to the surreal. Breath-taking job author! Reply »

stunning. Reply »

Woah! thank you for all comments and favs!
This was quite hard to shoot, and a pain in the @ss to clean Reply »

The skin is so smooth, how did you accomplish that? Reply »

4 kgs of makeup and a bit of Photoshop. Reply »

what tools did you use in PS? Reply »

Gee.... photoshop in the photography contests?! NO! Reply »
