Reflecting on the challenge, and also on the egg, I hesitated to enter because the background is not blown out white. Still, the egg is a lighter color than the white background, and the background white is displayed in one of the many ways that white can be represented photographically. Having the background so close to the DPC site background gives an illusion of transparency that I hadn't planned, but enjoy anyway. I like the image because it is subtle, soft, and stimulates thought. Hope at least a few others agree.

I like the reflection, but I'd also like to see more detail.

The border drew my eye first.

Border is too much and distracts from a very soft and subtle image.
