Cardboard cut to cast alternating lines of shadow onto unboiled egg. Flash covered with blue gel. My plan for the background failed so this is what I ended up with.

Was the egg painted this way or was it blue and placed within the shadows?

This picture really looks like the AT&T logo, but I like how you used light as the motif.

I love the minimalism of this photo... basic colour, texture and pattern all combining to make a great photo.

Nice shadows which make the object appear 3-D.

Very creative technique and I love the effect for this challenge. I'm curious what this would have looked like if the focal plane were a little further back, possibly with greater DOF to allow the surface texture to come through on the curves. Not sure it would result in an improvement, just curious.

I dont like the black background. Maybe a different angle or background could help

like the colours you have used it makes the boldness of the lines stand out, well done.
