    great shot, but how on earth did you do that to an egg? A scalpel?

  • Graham Jones replied

    Thanks for the comments guys. The recipe was:
    Take a hard-boiled egg and using a Dremel carefully cut through the shell into slices. I used a taught piece of dental floss to complete the cuts as the Dremel blade only cuts about 2mm deep.
    The bottom slice is sitting on blue tack on glass then the remaining slices are stacked. Second from top slice had the hard yolk removed then I poured a fresh yolk into the cavity and popped the top slice on as it poured down the sides and quickly fired off 5 shots using studio flash.
    Then clean up the mess :-) It took me 3 eggs before I successfully managed to slice one up nicely.

    It’s really well done Graham, very rarely do you see food photography within as much preperation and thought as this.

    amazing. Nothing like a beautiful bright runny yolk! very clever how you did it too. So original…who would ever think of doing this? Your brain must be a bit tweaked towards the unusual…which I appreciate.
