raw egg in hand... theme did not specify raw or cooked...

white = purity

converted to infrared

(tungsten light = more red tones = more white once converted).

red filter cancels out red color in b&w....

so ....the red tones of my skin and the yolk are enhanced by tungsten light and then canceled out by red filtration rendering them white which leads to more drama in an otherwise very boring subject.......
