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 itNOTE: This photo is NOT promoting racism. Please stop with the racism comments.

Thanks! White is the only one that's actually different than the others...since it's not a color

Like the title says, it's the simple things. This is a really nice work, the entire composition of it is just lovely.

I've seen this one so many times on the forums, but just never got around to commenting on it. It's perfect! In the full-view, I love the little knicks on the pencils, it gives this 'linear modern' design tons of character. Outstanding concept and great execution. I can't believe this hasn't been a DD yet, even though you couldn't tell by how many faves this has . You deserve every fave you get on this!
Congrats on a fresh photo.

Nice, why choose the white to be the one to stick out?

Because white is different since it's not a color.
