Eggs have often been used by rural folks as money. Thought I might do a still life of some. I really like the results of this, personally, but am looking forward to other comments of it.

How come, no matter what, there is a picture with eggs in it for every challenge? This is a nice shot tho

Beautiful lighting on the eggs and basket. Really makes this "pop" off the screen. 9

Beautiful composition, colors, lighting. I suspect some will question the connection to the challenge, but I like the way you tied it in with the title.

I do not understand your photo and how it relates to the challenge. I also do not know what your title means. Your photo is pretty good, sharp and clean, just don't know what to make of it. Can you perhaps explain?

Technical: Fits the challenge, I think? Exposure composition focus lighting all excellent. I would have made the eggs a little less right justified, though ;-)

Personal: Were eggs used for barter at some point? Weird. Nice shot though.

My vote: 7

Nice picture of eggs but I think you put them all on the same basket.

Nice depiction..... Great lighting and focus. Mabe some more light to the right (are there egs back there?) would have added some depth. I realy like the positioning.

I like the composition of this photo a lot. I also like the clean look of minimal colors.

Great lighting on this. Maybe a bit too sharpened, as the egg edges are jagged, not smooth. Background is great and again, lighting = superb. Good luck.

This is an original response to the challenge and a very valid one. Lighting a little intense but interesting composition

This is a beautiful photo and I love the lighting. It just doesn't say much about money to me.

Simple. Lovely. Great lighting. I like this very much. My folks raised chickens and did barter their eggs for milk before they could buy a cow. Nice work, I hope this does well.

I can´t undestand the egg-money relation that you try to express here. Sorry.

my favourite of the challenge. What a brilliant concept well executed. I like the lighting on the eggs and the artful use of shadow.
