Winners of the Food Levitation Competition: Congrats!
1st Prize Yuling
Congratulations to Yu Ling who walks away with the Powershot A1100IS and a Canon 5D MKII USB memory drive. I have to agree with the judges that this is a beautifully composed photo and the Har Gow really looks like floating in the air without any form of support. It has that "How did the photographer do that?" kind of feel when you look at it.
Consolation: Henri Bernando
Congrats also to Henri for this beautiful photo of a hand reaching out for a floating egg. The hand adds an interesting element to the photo. I guess it would be even more impressive if the egg was hovering a few more inches higher. Henri wins a Canon 5D MkII USB memory drive.
Our second consolation prize goes to Chan Tuck Leung with this interesting shot of a levitating apple. Apparently, he did not use the method which I used for the onion. Would anyone like to guess how he managed to do it?
All winners will be contacted by Canon on the collection of the prizes. Thanks to everyone who took part in the competition.

Sorry, a bit of miscomm.
The winning pic gets my vote too! Well done, Yuling!
wa.. the last entry got the win? cool..
i like it.
Tis indeed a nice picture. Wonder how the Har Kow taste like?
hey now that the comp is over, mind sharing how you did the trick with the egg in your earlier post? i would love to experiment with new techniques and i've tried searching all over the internet for the trick but i can't find it :(
Congrats to the winners. All well-deserved! Very well taken. : )
Wow these are indeed great photos. I had the idea of joining with a grotesque severed chicken head entry but it was smack in the middle of my exams. Wouldn't have won either way, these are really good.
apple one he use fishing line?
great pics. congrats to all winners.
eh les, its not har kow. its a jiao zhi.
Aiya magekin, I am so tempted to tell you, but if a magician tells everyone how he does his tricks then there is no longer any "magic" left.
OK here's a hint, it is the same trick used by many magicians and it requires some special equipment that you buy from magic shops.
Haha sumosumo, I think you are right.
The jiazi photo is really good! Like the composition of the photo too... the texture of the jiazi seems so smooth...
The 1st prize photo really stands out and deserves it. Nice and neat background, nice composition, and nice effect. Color and lighting are also good.
Congratulations !!!
Curious about the set-up for this pics. The dumpling is too soft to support by a stick, unless frozen. From the exif: 1/800 sec. free fall can be an option ?
Nice entries and well deserved placing *clap clap* the dumpling shot is superb..
empty egg & stick? ;p
