How did you photograph this? Reply »

i can see an excessive touch up on the spoon surface Reply »

nice Reply »

No selective editing touch ups were made on previous entry but it had alot of noise (shot with too high ISO) and had to run thru a denoiser program. Re-shot it with new camera settings and better paper. Hope it is better. Reply »

Oh and Barracuda.... can't tell. LOL Reply »

yes, this one alot much more better. very2 cool idea and nice photo too. good luck. Reply »

If you are not able to explain how you did this, then the mods will remove it! Reply »

Are you kidding me??????? I can explain but won't until after the contest!!!! You are all so quick to judge.... give me a break. MODS>>>> please PM me and i would love to explain how to do this.... not very hard if you think about it. (anyone else too for that matter) Sorry for the attitude but i have been seing too much accusing and not enough asking, sharing, or just being nice lately on this site. Reply »

i think it is your right to share or not how you did it, as long it follows the guideline it won't hurt.... Reply »

I don't mind sharing at all.... after the contest... I am just tired of seeing all the accusing lately.... alot by a few individuals with no proof! I think we should all share our ideas.... isn't that what it's all about??? Please.... anyone wanting to know how to do this please PM me and i will tell all. My pleasure..... I just want to learn from all of you too. Reply »

I for one don't think it needs to be shared with anyone but the mods who may question it's authenticity. If you are willing to share it with people personally than kudos to you, but just because we may not know how it was done doesn't mean it isn't real. Reply »

I know how you did it. It's, it's... MAGIC! Reply »

I think I know how you did it too. The shadow is not a real shadow. Very clever author. GL! Reply »

I can swear that the shadow is a real shadow and not printed on the paper. Reply »

If that shadow isn't printed on the paper.. OMG its purely magic then.. author be ready to receive a PM from me.. Reply »

Alright, you got my username. How did you do it? I never thought this should be removed, just because it is such a clever photo but it's mainly my own curiosity. Reply »

Super idea!! If some people would just calm down and think about what they are looking at then they may figure out how the illusion is created, instead of reacting with acccusations to belie their own ignorance. And if you can't figure it out then hey... that's the beauty of illusion! Great job author and other artists who are producing fantastic illusions. Reply »

I agree with Swanze too!!!! Thank you all for the "backup". Reply »

the only thing I can think of how this is done is by placing a fork in a spot where the fork's shadow is under the spoon. Hmmm. Nice job! Reply »

Author great job there and Swanze is soooo right about everything! Some know-it-alls must calm down a bit in here... Reply »
