Thanks for all of the kind comments everyone. This was a fun one to do and I'm glad to have provided a smile or two, even a brief one. :)

So simple and abstract... I could see this on a wall in a museum.

Ok. . .I've been thru all of them now, and this one is clearly the best. I hope its score is in ribbon range because it deserves it!

Great idea but I knocked off one point for the softness, I don't think that it helps this shot. 9

The egg is such a wonderful, almost transluscent, juxtaposition against the shadowy background. It is like a 3 dimensional opening into a different place or state of being.

The egg is a litle to bright but what a great idea. And it is very well executed.
