That’s One Bad Egg

One bad egg. So I have been submitting photographs to Adobe Stock in my spare time, and having lots of fun doing it while learning some lessons. I found this defective egg in a carton in Park City, Utah while on a ski vacation.

I shot this photograph That’s One Bed Egg with my Sony RX-100 camera which shoots in raw format. It was not accepted to the stock library because even at the 200 ISO setting, with the tungsten lighting from a lamp on the table, the image still has too much grain and noise, which you could only see if you zoomed into it. Too bad because I have been searching for another mutated egg to shoot this again and I cannot find a source. I will have to visit poultry farms around Austin to see if I can find one. For the next version I will shoot at ISO 80, 125/sec shutter speed at f 2.8 on my Manfrotto tripod so I can get the same look,  but I will light it with my 600 EX RT speed light shot through an umbrella. Till then, happy shooting!
