Or was it? Doesn't matter, really. | John -- thanks for your observation. A friend told me that if you could light an egg and a potato in the same photograph, you could light anything. This was one of my first attempts. So when I had to do an assignment to show the effects of filters, I started with the potato and egg thing and then went on using red and blue filters to do other things. I still have a long way to go, but I am determined to get there. I hadn't thought about sex--at least not in this photograph. But then maybe the subconscious added two (and only two) eggs for a reason. Curious. pax rand
