Wow - similar to my shot -- eek -- lol. I like the blurred eagle swooping in from the background. Nice added touch with the bit of brances too.

Sorry, but this doesn't look real at all. The eagle appears to be something hanging in the background and the eggs are chicken eggs in paper from your shredder with a few springs of grass. The background is so blurry that is doesn't even count as soft focus (probably to hide your fake eagle) and it is all very 1-dimensional where as it looks like you attempted to make it have a shallow DOF for depth. This all may sound harsh but this is what I see and what I don't care for in your photo. Your idea was a neat one but your technical execution was poor. Feel free to send me a message.

Interesting, I would be curious to see how you did this.

to me would have worked MUCH better with just the eggs and weeds, paper etc on a white background, the mural behind comes out oof and has those dreaded blotches all over

Creative....has light on white....I wish the eagle were a little sharper....hmmm but then DPC people would say "eagle distracts from eggs" So good that eagle is blured! 9

great ceativity, lighting angle should have been adjusted as to not show shadow off egg on backdrop though
