The color is terrific. I would have loved a little more focus, but I'm guessing it's hard to get koi to cooperate.

Composition - The varying sizes and colors of eggs in this photo give it a little more creative variety. The smaller ones are definitely unique compared to most. Their arrangement in the box is good. I think that the framing could have been a little better to include more of the box and not concentrate on the eggs so much as the box. That might improve the framing. This picture isn't flat from a depth perception, but needs a little something to make it "dynamic" an you can make a still life. I'm not sure what happened to the one if front just left of center but that egg is a bit washed out so to speak. It may have just a little less pigment in it's shell.

Technical - Looks pretty sharp to me. The lighting is ok. I'd prefer a little more dramatic lighting to give the eggs some depth. I think the framing needs to be a panned back a little. If it is, I feel the background would have to change so it didn't get too busy. This photo is not badly taken, but could use a few adjustments.

Overall - Not a bad shot but not really a good one either. There really isn't to much to look at after first glance and seeing the sizes of the different eggs. It needs a few adjustments but is a good start to a pretty good photo. Good luck with future efforts. - Inspzil

Your subject matter here has the makings of a great photo, but your props really take away from that. The baking pan and the red and white background and surface seem like an after thought for this photo. If you can get some more of these, try this photo again with a nice cloth or other backdrop. There is potential here for a great photo! Good Luck,
JD

I like the basic up front nature of this image, reflected also by the title. A little experimentation with lighting levels and angles may help make it more engaging.

Interesting eggs, perhaps you could have played around with the composition, to make more of an abstract design.

did your camera flash? the very front eggs have a lighter cast to them than the others. bit of noise in the upper left background

A clever idea. You might try fiddling with your lighting to give the image some mood, and perhaps some interesting perspective or angles would add to the photo's effectiveness as well. Your horizontal lines indicate a detatchment, which is enhanced by the despair being on the computer in the first place. Since the image has almost no color, you might try actually making it black and white to show a kind of journalism of sorts. Good luck.

In general, pictures of computer screens aren't as riveting as other subjects. The news does show despair though.
