A Comment From The Critique Club
Hi Natasha!
My first impression was that this is a very funky and creative idea and I was curious how you've achieved this photo. Then read your description and concluded that I would've never in a million years come up with that. Great idea :)
I like the composition a lot. The arrangement of the eggs combined with what seems to be multiple exposures makes the viewer wonder if this really is just one egg in different positions. I know it's not, but it is a thought that crossed my mind.
The background is mostly evenly black, which emphasizes the eggs and the different color lights on them further. There are a couple of colored streaks where the lights seem to have hit folds in your background material. I can't decide if I'd like it better with them or without, but I'm starting to think they add to the photo when I look at it longer.
Technically, this is also a good shot. Nice focus and DOF. Good coloring. Someone suggested shooting from straight above the eggs to eliminate the shadow under the eggs, I didn't initially notice them much, so it's not a big thing, but I think it's a good suggestion that makes for a slightly cleaner image.
I don't know if you did much for post-processing, so I don't have much to say about that one except I don't see anything wrong. I think I would've changed the crop a little bit to even out the distance of the eggs to the different edges, I think the crop on the right is a bit too close to the egg. The border works well, it compliments the shot without drawing the eye away from it.
Definitely meets the challenge.
In conclusion, I think you entered a really creative and effective photo in the challenge that I liked a lot, and so did a lot of the other voters judging by your final score. I really enjoy your submissions, keep up the good work :)
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments about this review.

| Great idea! Two suggestions for improvement...leave a little more room in the frame for the subject to 'breathe' and shoot the subject from head on (if possible) to eliminate that reflection @ the bottom that at first seems to be motion blur. Good job :) |

| Enter your comment here, and then cast your vote...bottom is blured and detracts from overall effect. |
