Last minute desperation!
Ok, so I had this great idea to get 3 pictures of a cookie falling into milk...1 of the cookie above the milk, 1 as it slashes into the milk and 1 of the milk "consuming" the cookie. It turns out it is a lot harder to capture this than I thought. You pretty much get 1 shot per cookie before it gets soaked and after a few cookies splash into the milk you have to replace the milk due to the little cookie crumbs. To make a long story short, I ran out of cookies. If I had to plan this out again I would have bought more cookies for sure. This was the only good shot I got out of the whole batch. My timing was TERRIBLE! I don't think this will do to well because it isn't made up of 3 photos...not that it has to be, but one's that are typically do better in a "Triptych" challenge.
also...I wish I could clone out the crack and cookie crumbs
P.S. I'm sure I'll get some crap for using a generic Oreo Cookie too!! What can I say...I'm cheap!
Prediction...low 6's (if I'm lucky)
Awwww...to bad!
They said I used a selection tool but I honestly don't remember doing this. To make the border in the middle I just used the line tool and erased the border where I didn't want it. Oh well, next time! |

A cool shot and well done photo.
But on one thing you said in your photo comments.

Using an eraser is a selection tool. |

Haha!!! I love it!! When I was about to submit this I was also thinking it looked like "jail bars" |

| "Ok" photo by itself (bit tired of splashy stuff), but doesn't feel like a Triptych. Seems more like a regular photo with just lines/frames put over it. |

| this has been done before, multiple times. I dont care for how you divided the frames up. You're almost cutting the motion off with the black lines, I feel like I cant see the whole picture. |

| I have no idea how you did this but it looks awesome. And yummy. :) I'm not sure how well it really works as a triptych though. |

| Great picture, but DNMC IMO. I think that this is just one picture |

| while it's clever, it doesn't appeal to me in the slightest |

| Fascinating image! I hope the border is legal... it adds so much. (Not voting) |

| Technically impressive and a well orchestrated shot. The choc Oreo (?) is also detailed and that makes it much more difficult to get white cup/milk and dark biscuit exposed right with enough detail. Milk splashes are perfect, hooray for fast FPS camera's! I hope you did this in M mode and not A mode as I'd like to know how it was done! The framing is incredibly original and unusual. A masterpiece for Basic Editing. Hardwork has it's rewards... |

| Very interesting and original. It took me a minute to figure out what̢۪s happening here. 10 |

| no only do i think this has been done before, but its not very appealing to the eye with the separations, imo |
