Probably showing my age, but sometime in the late 80's or so I saw a bumper sticker saying "Imagine Whirled Peas" , a play on the "New Age" saying "Imagine World Peace". The visual image made me laugh - enough so that I have wanted to do a photograph of the visual ever since. This challenge was just enough to make me give it a whirl (sorry).
I hope someone else "gets it".
The image I submitted actually wasn't what I had planned for, but the two peas that flew out of the bowl were so serendipitous that I just had to use it. They "just happened" - for a reason I guess.
f/6.3, ISO 100, 1.3sec., Canon 24-85mm @ 35mm, crop, cloned a couple of spots, levels, curve, contrast, selective color adjustment, USM, dodge, resize. |

| Fun shot and great execution. The peas and water to the right really finish off the shot well. WOuldnt be the same without them. Nice work and bumping up. |

| OK, I was hungry, but this took it away. Not that I don't like the shot - It's a cool idea. Just the idea of peas turned baby-food... ick. I really like the two that escaped. They give the shot a clever point of interest. |

| Great idea - glad you kept the two peas on the side because they really show what's spinning. |

| I like the pun of the title and the overall compisition very much. the colors are very nice. while peas are the subject without the title they would be unrecognizable so i will have to deduct a couple of points for that. since the challenge was advanced I would have cloned out the hotspots on the blue ring. |

| I thought someone would do this. I would have gone with out the splatter and peas in the upper right, or had more of them. |

| I love this shot, nicely crisp and graphic, so strong is that portion of the shot (the bowl and peas / soup) that I would lose the peas at the top right that were ejected by the centripedal force ( :) ) I know what you were trying to do, but the image is plenty strong already. What would be nice though is a looser crop, giving the bowl more room to breath. Well done for this |
