Oh...forks!

Woo hoo! Who knew forks could be such fun? Managed to take about 150 pictures of forks today...and some funny shots I got too.

Thought I would get an entry in early...I know it is not everyones cup of tea but made me giggle!

Enjoy!

Re: Oh...forks!

I like the simplicity

Not sure if all capitals might have worked a bit better for me..... (I can't "do" joined up writing )

Re: Oh...forks!

I like your thinking for this one, I just don't like the background blankety thing. Well done for getting us off the blocks

Re: Oh...forks!

I love the simplicity of the idea here, although I find the background a distraction.
Are there cat hairs on the blanket? I think it would have been a more dramatic shot against a black background, maybe with some interesting lighting at an angle.

Yes they are cat hairs...unfortunately I do not have anything darker than the red (which is darker in real life than it came out in the photo!)...and every blanket in our house is covered with cat hairs! (Bless her)
I really just wanted to get a shot in first as I have never done that...also know that there are going to be some much better pictures than mine and just wanted to have some fun with forks!!!!!

Would work really well as an animation aye?

I have a funny picture in my head of all the forks opening the drawer in the kitchen and marching down the corridor!

Re: Oh...forks!

Good idea, have to agree about the background though.
