Awesome! This is an incredible photo. The idea here is brilliant, i like the fact that it is offset. Lighting and tones are great.

The focus could be a little sharper, but otherwise a wonderful image. The layout is engaging, the shadow play is nice, and the tonal range is great. One of my favorite shots of the week.

Very nice, and somewhat weird(?) concept. I like your choice of the tone. The egg doesn't seem very well in focus.

Like the duotone, not so sure about the concept of an egg in a lantern though.

Nice idea and nice lighting. Egg looks out of focus and the whole image has a "foggy" look to it.

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

This photo offers an excellent 'surreal' mood with the shallow tonal range and the contrasts of the rocks and the fog. To be quite honest, I don't think I would change a thing about it... I really like it just the way you have presented it here. For a 'critique club' comment on this work, I am at a loss.

Like I said, I think the shallow tonal range in this image is what gives this photo its great character...

Keep up the good work!

Very interesting, dark and weird. It reminds me of a painting... it's called "The Wanderer above the Mists" by Caspar David Friedrich (I just looked that up in a book of mine), although there is no wanderer in this photo. The viewer is put in that position.

However, there isn't enough tonal depth. Some work on the levels in this image would give it a lot of impact. It also has a very small file size, suggesting that you compressed it too much when you saved it.

Here is what I got when I tried fiddling with it, adjusting the levels and sharpening it, but the amount of compression has hurt it.

How creepy is this? This has a different appeal than any of the pics I've seen so far. But it is no less great. With something for a minor focal point, I'd have to give it a 10, but I'd take a nine...I hope you feel the same. - Inspzil
