Description This is something I've been wanting to do for a while, and it took about 40 shots to get it right. I was using Crayola pencils, which bore the golden logo that kept shining on other pencils. In this picture, you can faintly see this in a couple of pencils towards the top - I attempted to edit it out in Photoshop, but couldn't get rid of it completely. But since this was the best of the bunch, I thought I'd share it with y'all...hope you enjoy it

Hah, makes me thing of the saying "not the brightest crayon in the box" But this of course, would be the brightest. Awesome idea.

Really cool. This reminds me of one of my shots... kinda. Maybe just because I used crayons or something.. haha.
Anyways, I love shots that involve simple focuses to convey a more complex meaning, which is what I get from this. I like how the white pencil has been singled out from the rest of the colors.
