Greetings from the Critique Club
By Inspzil

Composition - Nice simple composition. This is the strong, and weak point of this photo in my opinion. But I think that depends entirely on opinions. The simplicity of the composition in my opinion is what makes this image as good as it is. There isn't a lot of stuff to distract anyone from anything but the egg. On the flip side, this image is a little sterile for my tastes. I'm not saying its necessarily suffering from a lack of creativity, but that there is so much white and nothing else. I don't really like the degree that this photo is high key.

Technical - I think this image is effective overexposed, just not this much. Aside from that this is an extremely well taken photo.

Overall - Good image, just a bit bright for my tastes. It makes me think of hospitals for some reason.

Good luck in your future photos - Inspzil

Like the high key style. This one is maybe just a little too high key for my taste. I think I would like to see (barely) the right edge of the egg or at least until it was out of frame.

A really engaging concept: so subtle, and I love how the egg disappears to the right.

I think that you need to add some color to your picture. This image just dosent have alot of intrest to it. But nice work

Seriously though.. great idea and execution!

03/04/2003 03:13:47 PM

Nice composition, good demonstration of minimalism. I like it!

Neat effect.....(how the egg disappears into background). Simple.... has a 'pure' quality about it.

your rainbow visual effects are retained in PictureViewer, which means they are intended. my premium viewer - quicktime makes the effects quite differently than on the net....... and it showed your colour is even more pronounced. often when a rainbow effect is present in a pic, quicktime shows it without the artifact. The opposite of what yours did.

Great shot, perhaps the lighting is a little bit too harsh, abit more detail in the egg woud have been good.

nicely done. The high key look of this shot was a great idea and you have executed it very well. Your lighting here is excellent! It's great how subtle the shadows are, yet they are defined and work great here.

This is staggering - really brave, confident, and very very gorgeous: has that simplicity of 'I could have thought of that, and done it' but of course no-one else did. The first photo on this site that I'm going to rate 10. How'd you get the field so white without it looking over-exposed? Is that just because the background itself is so white? Fabulous ...

Love the idea, but wish there were just a tiny bit more contrast in the shadow and edges of the egg. Composition and presentation are just wonderful!

It is a little too faded for me.
