I only have "WOW" to say about this.

Hi Ted, last egg really brings about the feeling of being alone in that tray, your well prepared capturing of the subject is A-OK, (my wife likes it as well!). Composition is also fine, but why not full color. In this case the natural pastel color of the egg (one I can imagine for myself) might have balanced the rather vivid and strong colors of the background giving the photo a bit more dynamic appearence! Cheers, Feri.

Good idea and a nice picture. There are 2 problems: 1) too much open space above the egg, crop the top such that the egg covers about 2/3 of the heigth, 2) the slanted line in the middle distracts, you should try to blur the background even more.

Ted,

nice clean shot with good DOF work. The name is very creative and funny. Also, I have a weakness for B&W, but I am sure everyone knows that by now ;-)

Egg is well focused and nice lighting and DOF. Not sure why I don't have this on my short list.

Hi Ted,

I like the clean graphical aspect of this image. I think the lighting and BW works well here. The whimsical title also is nice. Composition is a bit unbalanced with a large portion of OOF that, altough providing depth, does not contribute much to the image. Overall I like this shot
