OK, almost a year ago in this thread I thought my chicken tender looked like a manatee:



Today, I have the same issue with a Crescent Roll:




Michael, I don't think the pills you sent me are helping…

Happy Psychotic-Delusion-Filled New Year, Everyone!

WOW. I could kind of see it with the chicken, but with the crescent role it's quite obvious. Looks like a perfect match. The manatees are trying to tell you something Mark... but what?

I would say the roll looks more like a humpback whale.

How did you suspend the crescent roll for the picture?

I have two theories.

1. He tossed the crescent roll in the air and snapped the picture when it was at the peak of its ascent. It probably required a lot of takes and good dexterity.

2. He used Photoshop.


I'm gonna go with 2.

That's creepy. Highly religious people often see the Virgin Mary in common household items -- wonder what seeing a manatee means ?

I'm hoping "overworked and overdue for a vacation"

We HAVE a winner!

Since I hadn't broken down the setup, here it is:



A- Camera with Macro lens
B- Articulating arm ending with a nail to mount the "manatee"
C- Tupperware cover for blue background
D- Flash blasting through Tupperware cover for saturated color
E- Main light was a 2' x 3' softbox

Time in studio: 7 minutes
Time in Photoshop: 3 minutes
Time to write the post: 10 minutes (including uploads)
Time enjoying how insanely stupid and pointless it was: Priceless.

I think the manatees should spend some "quality" time together. you might get a chicken sandwich out of it. I'm hungry

LOL! I hope NOT. Although, in the tub would probably be better than using that "arm with a nail" setup.

Mark, you need to get your meds from JP. And eat more vegetables.

Cracked me up. Thanks!

That's a quote from the movie "Madagascar" -- but I bet you didn't know that, not having air-breathing kids... yet.
