I like this because it is different! It has a dry humour that I think is clever. The text adds to designy look! Well done.

thanks mythica^^.

its awesome. agree w/mythica

I love eggs :D

This is really cool, and even interesting. What I thought was interesting was that the part of the egg shell that was closest to me was blurred while the part of the egg that was farther away is more sharp. Messes with my depth perception a bit hehe

This is nice work, and good luck!

I really like this Cain. I love eggs and have on average 6 a day. Very very good for you, especially raw with fresh raw milk. Yummmmm.... =)

thanks guys^^.

thanks beowulf ^^... 6 a day?! oh my.. that's er... a lot! lol... I like eggs, fried eggs^^ just once in a while^^.

Amazing artistic and professional work!

Very original and skillful. Well done, Lucy.

Excellent monochromatic depiction of the EGG. I like how you can see the thickness of the shell and that skin part that sometimes sticks to the hard-boiled egg.

There are plenty of pictures of whole eggs, this is the first one I've seen of an empty one. The cracking and the membrane are what makes it interresting, that and your lovely light.

Nice work. excellent.

One of the most well-known exercises in photography school is to take photos of an egg, with different lights, but not with a broken egg... ;-)
Well done, Lucy.

Brilliant work Lucy. But I guess you know that by now. ^_^ I don't have much to say in addition to the comments above. I really like this as well. Especially the hue is perfect.

The only though that strayed my mind is that I would maybe like to se a version where the one of the top of the small photos got to be the big one to the right. The three small ones could then be placed so the tilting of the egg shell changed from the least to the greatest angle of tilting. (In other words: The big one seems to be perfect to place in a small version between the two lower ones. (Sorry that I can't explain it better.))

thanks a lot everyone^^.

ooh Pierre, I didn't know that... well, I'll try with a whole egg next time, thanks for the info^^

Very nice..love the warm lighting and the different angles and cracks,lots of interest..and why not an empty egg.. good job!

alzco : 'I read somewhere that 'Gallus Gallus' was the scientist name for a hen^^

Hi Lucy. I like this image a lot, specially the idea of casting a partial eggshell into the brownish monochrome sepia. I also like the lines intersecting and providing a border for the image and separating the visual from the text. Well done.

Very interesting and original! I like the contrast with light and shadow.

Hey, just stoppin by to congradulate you on getting so close to winning in the contest. The fact you got recognized obviously shows something =D. Well done.

I like the way the white comes through the cracks in the egg. The font for this is once again, flawless. One beaut image. 10/10

The text rocks, the picture rocks, the composition rocks. Anhywho, I just finished a series of egg drawings and I thought this was familiar, but refreshing. Great work.

that's hilarious- oh, and the image is awesome too! :D
Thanks for posting!

haha...i love it...goood jooobbbb

Lol I love it too, it reminds me of a crime scene, and this is the evidence taken from 4 angles, haha awesome job 10/10 =)

So creative and excellent. I love your stuff in general. The text is perfect.

Clever idea, and very well presented. The text is fine. great work.

Excellent image - translucent and fragile.
