John,
Thanks for the comments. I had an earlier shot with the egg a flatter/matte finish. I thought the gloss was a bit more stand out in the crowd. My alterante title was "punk"
I did my best to add more light to the blue egg. If you notice there is a shadow behind the blue egg. I had one light overhead giving light to the whole scene. I had a second light shining through a papertowel tube (the inside of a roll of paper towels...very Macgyver set up. Lots duct tape and foil etc) directly on the blue egg. There were bright (blown out) high lights the I cloned out. Maybe I should have had two such rigged up lights, one from either side.

Certainly one in this crowd Marc. :^) Good composition, although the shinier finish of the blue egg is perhaps a bit too obvious for it to blend in better with the other eggs. The light seems to be more on the background eggs, so I'd like to see it focus more on the subject egg than the others to keep the focus where it is meant to be. Good concept all the same.
