You captured it! Everyone (including myself) went for the literal- You went for the feeling. Very, very well done. 10 and a favorite. Beautiful light by the way, and the slight breeze I can almost feel.

I love the simplicity. You'll probably get comments about the grain, but I like it.

A lovely still life. THe only thing I don't like is that the right side of the table is blown out. 9

Love the simplicity of this but it looks like noise or grain was added which doesn't work for me on the eggs. It's also a wee bit flat on the colours.

This really does say country morning to me! Two things that bother me: 1 is that the resolution of the image is not that good. This is very apparant when looking at the noise on the eggs. 2 is that the top third of the image could be cropped off. The darkness of the top 1/3 pulls your eye away from the subject of the eggs.

This is a total work of art...I can almost "feel" this image...I only wish I were there...beautiful work.

other than the graininess on the eggs i think this is a wonderful picture. The eggs and maybe what they are sitting on.

One of the better more creative pictures in this challenge so far. I really like the feeling and the composition. The breeze coming in through the window is a great touch. Wonderfully done.

Spectacular work of art! There is so much here. The cool breeze blowing through the open window and the farm fresh eggs. The soft colors of the first morning light and the eggs are a sure sign of an early morning breakfast. The grain is a nice addition to give this a rustic unrefined feeling of the country.

Excellent use of gradation to bring attention to the eggs. Leadlines of color and light also help bring the focal point all together in an unconventional position. I really love images that defy the basic principals of composition.

My first 10 in this challenge.
