I love the idea of putting the subject on a mirrored bottom, it adds more depth to the picture. Glad the feather is in there too, wouldn't have been the same without it

Very good idea.
Perhaps the reflection on the egg is a bit harsh, but due to my lack of eggsperience in such matters, can't say how to eliminate it on such a difficult subject

Nice composition - but I don't think you really need the mirror/reflection for this. I'd also rather see more side lighting as the glare on the golden egg does not help. The feather at the bottom does not help the presentation. Black background was a perfect choice.

Great setup. The feathers are a brilliant touch, providing softness to balance the hard eggs. My only complaint is the bright spot on the gold egg.

great idea and a pretty nice composition, but I am bothered by the hotspot on the golden egg and the eggshell bumps

This looks familiar--like something from the Serendipity challenge. I like it all except I would rather see the feathers that are cropped at the lower edge of the frame a bit more off to the left of the frame, or better yet, eliminated entirely, to balance out the composition a bit. The way they are placed here, the whole thing seems to be spilling off the lower edge of the frame instead of being firmly grounded.

Nice idea. I think having the gold egg dead center hurts the composition. I like the over all idea and the focus is very good.
