Greetings from the Critique Club.
I must say yet another fine photo from you.
I think this was a difficult challenge because part of it was to make the viewer laugh. I didn't laugh at this photo only because I don't get it. So in those regards I don't believe it met the challenge. I think this photo being taken on a tee box at a golf course with someone about to hit it would be better.

This is very clear and sharp photo. The contrast is brillant and I honestly couldn't think of a way to improve you technique. I think you choose B&W very well and I look forward to seeing more of your photos in future challenges. Other than not being all too humorous this was one of the finest shots of the week.

This puts a whole new perspective on the American beer advertising slogan touting "born-on dating."

Excellent composition and lighting. I love the simplicity of your image and it's very well thought through. To be honest, it didn't make me 'laugh' as such, however I see the humour behind it which certainly meets the challenge. The clarity is also wonderful. Good luck this week.

Very good shot! Eggcellent detail! Good contrast, too. How in the world did you get the print on the egg? Fine balance!!! 8 Swash

Some may not see the humor in this, but it a nice commentary on life that everyone needs to cover their @$$, even the chickens!

I love the composition but I'm trying to figure out the gag here. Nice shot regardless. Jacko.

Cool picture! Interesting letters on the egg. Not sure of the significance of that, but then again I don't golf.

I've never seen an egg with an exp. date on it. Good shot.

I really love the concept here and it is a very nicely executed photo but the date mark is really distracting and takes away from the form of the egg in my humble opinion.

Fun idea, would have had more strength with a little more: shadow of a golfer, club in movement, golfer shoes etc. good image but a bit lazy.

Nicely done. Egg-selent focus and clarity. (ok, sorry, that was bad) The texture and detail on the egg just jumps out. The background is great. Nothing distracting there. I like the DOF. Lighting is great. You did a great job with this photo. Good luck in the challenge.

I''d love to see a fast shutter speed "action-stopping" shot of a golf club striking the egg.

Nice lighting and focus. Don't try to hit this one!

LOL. Good one. I wish the egg weren't stamped.

So it's an egg... on a golf tee... Not really rib-ticklingly hilarious. If you'd had a golfer hitting it and getting splattered with egg white, that would have been more like it. Nice photo though. Perhaps too brightly lit on the right hand side - you lose the texture of the egg there, which is beautifully captured further to the left.
