Very nice picture, Angela, you are clever. To get rid of the flash coming back at the camera take the picture at an angle to one side. Or take it outside in the sunshine then the flash will not go off.

I would love to say it is painted on an egg ! but unfortunally not it's mounted in an oval frame ,you have however put very creative thoughts in my mind now , just wondering if pastels would stay on a shell .
