Had the idea of "spooning spoons", and took it a little further than I thought I would. The "bed" is a book wrapped in a tee-shirt, the "covers" are another tee-shirt, and the "pillows" are folded tissues. Lighting was from a floor lamp bouncing off the ceiling, and a desk lamp held behind an index card with four rectangles cut out to make a "window".

Post processing: rotate, crop, resize, levels, desaturate, Guassian blur, fuzzy border.

Nice concept. Would have been great if you could have controlled the shadows eg with a light tent.

Nice idea. But it is very difficult to differentiate the two spoons. Like the colours and composition.

Clever idea, but really hard to see what's going on.

I read your title, but it took me a moment or two before "the light went off". LOL - Point for creativity and humor.

I am amazed that one can get such sensual images out of cutlery. This, along with another entry has done just that. I love the soft lighting and tones.
