Cool composition - I like the lighting and shadows!

Thank you both for your comments. Mike, no I don't have an ostrich, but there used to be people that had some in the Helena Valley (you could get ostrich meat in some of the restaurants for a while there), but I don't think they're there anymore. I remember getting this egg at a craft show or something a few years back, thinking I might draw or paint or 'something' on it...but I haven't yet. And now it seems to have developed a crack on one side. Darn. Melanie

Nice shadow and light here, Melanie...well executed. I like how the two similar egg shapes contrast in size and color. I like the clear textural detail too. Do you have an ostrich? MFC

Very nice use of shapes, Mlynn. Perfect photo as well. Linda
