Greetings from the Critique Club!
First Impression: You really must love eggs! :) This is a really fun and a very original photo (and sounds like you had fun setting it up as well!).
Technicals/Processing: Although the composition is good, having the pan straight on (like your inspiration) or a tighter crop would have strengthened your composition significantly. I am not a big fan of your background, its texture and pattern seems to compete with the omelet. While your focus for the most parts is good, I really wish the focus was sharp throughout -- the slightly out of focus handle knobs and lower right of the omelet are a little distracting. I think a final pass of sharpening would have helped to bring out some texture in the omelet. The lightning on the top left of the pan is a little strong.
Final thoughts: Unfortunately, I think, your choice of background costed you a few points, as technical shortfalls are fairly minor. This is a fun and very original image and, as  Jutildasaid, you really can't go wrong with Calphalon!
Please feel free to PM me if you have any questions.
Cheers,
Anna |

If you hadn't told me with the title, it may have taken me a while to figure out exactly what this is!
Nice idea, and I like the black on yellow. Those eggs seem almost luminous in appearance! Don't know that the stripy background helps at all though. |
