Good work. Although due to the lighting the egg yolk seems to have no depth to it. |

I like the color tones in the yolk with that nice fade from bright yellow to an outer orange. The bubbles around the yolk throw me off a bit as that I think that there are too many small ones rather than the few larger ones of the original. Too many clustered there makes it seem too busy for what is a simple, clean and minimilistic shot. The bubble on the outer edge is a bit too out of focus and I think it needs to be sharper. I would try a smaller aperature (thinking 6.3 or higher) and slower shutter speed (be sure to have it on a tripod to keep the camera steady while exposing the shot & a low ISO like 50-100 would be good too to avoid image grain if this is shot indoors with low light) I also think that the blue of the grooved plate needs to be illuminated more to show off some of the rich color it has for it looks a bit flat and dark. I also think that if you had moved the yolk further down the curve of the yolk would be 'echoed' with the grooves that spiral around it. That would make the composition more visually interesting. It would look like the grooves are further 'ripples' away from the center yolk. Hmmm, come to think of it you know what this composition makes me think of? The yolk is the sun and the grooves of the plate are the planetary revolutions around it. |

A good try, but I prefer the original. In it, you get a better feel for the shape of the yolk. Here it just seems to be a yellow spot. I also prefer fewer bubbles attached to the yolk.
EDIT - fixed the spelling. Was I drunk? |
