This is really hilarious, Louis! Really well done.  My only little dritique might be that I don't like the line of trees (or whatever the brown area is) in the distant background visible at the top of the photo. I find it a little distracting. It would be really easy to clone that out but It would have to be done with a littloe care so as not to see the clone lines. For me, though, that would make the shot perfect. Either way, the shot and the concept are wonderful!
All the best,
Endre
Thanks Endre, I always appreciate your comments. I agree about the line of trees at the top. I was at 17mm and took several angles. The shot that I liked the best had the shadow of the egg up against the club which was undesirable. This one had the right spacing for the club but then I noticed the line of trees was at the top of the egg.
I'm still a newbie with Photoshop and usually prefer to shoot in camera and make small adjustments prior to posting, so I just left the line at the top. It's distracting for sure, but this is my first entry all summer and I am a little rusty.
I finally ponied up and bought a new computer to do my post processing. My old Dell Inspiron 1100 was getting so hot during my photo editing sessions it would almost catch on fire! When it started shutting itself down on its own, I decided it was time to spend my summer photo earnings from my sports photography on a new 'puter.
My new Dell 9200 is so fast I am amazed. It runs my Canon DPP and Photoshop 7 so fast I think I should be waiting on a task when in fact, it is already done.
Thanks again for taking a look and commenting. I still think its great to be able to post here and get comments from the "masters" like you and my good friend and neighbor, John.
