 This shot never would have happened had my husband not been away on a business trip.

Oh, the condition of the kitchen right now. :O

My very first attempt at stop action.

Oh WOW! I never imagined that this would finish strong enough to place!

YAY!

I did manage to get the kitchen back to a somewhat normal state before HUbby got back, however there are a few towels that will never be the same. I couldnt bring myself to waste that much food so its just food coloring in water with enough milk solids to catch the light.

Thank you everyone! It took me two years almost to the day to get my second ribbon!

Congrats on the ribbon, think this image would have been stronger if you had blackened the backround out to pitch black, easy to do with for example levels in basic editing. Nice splash effect!

Didya get the kitchen spotless before he returned? Was it worth it? Enquiring minds need to know :-) And, oh, congrats :-)

Love the colours. Great effect (and isn't it "wonderful" cleaning up the kitchen after the "fun"). Congrats on your ribbon, Jennifer!

What a messy fun capture here. I wonder how many times it took to get the right shot? Very nice action.

The concept is wonderfully refreshing. The liquid matter is colorful and alive. The black background....hmmmm!

Methinks this was messy to do.

 11/14/2007 10:52:16 AM
very nice shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/14/2007 06:52:10 AM
Haha. Nice idea! I think including the handle or a different colored background would improve the shot though. Also, including the base of the blender would help identify it.

creative interpretation, good use of colors, but the light is a bit lackluster.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/14/2007 04:45:20 AM
oh! I don't want to have a look in your kitchen after your work for this challenge ;-)
the orange color works good against the black background. also a nice idea

 11/14/2007 04:09:17 AM
Oh my god - what a mess you must have made with this :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/14/2007 01:42:27 AM
great colour, good image for this challenge
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 11/13/2007 09:43:05 PM
Wonderful shot and a great idea! I think that if you had your shutter speed faster and caught all of the 'drops and stuff' more clearly, this would have been a better overall photo. Good job though!! (8)
