this is egg-straordinary: egg-ceptional lighting: egg-cellent idea - ;)

good pic and DOF. Hard to tell what you might be selling, so it leaves an empty spot for me.

Good setup, the color is nice throughout the whole image. That's quite the giant egg.

Wow, I really like it. Was there a way to get all three sets of shades to match? The top half of the right one is distracting.
05/10/2002 06:12:00 PM
Just. Pure. Sweetness. If only it wasn't a BIT tilted!
05/10/2002 05:16:00 PM
not hard to guess what is advertised here-----I would have perfered a different backgroound myself but I sure do like the colors------10

Very nice composure. I like the high key look to it. Not having any vibrant colors for contrast really makes it look that much more artisitc. Who or what laid it??
05/10/2002 02:10:00 PM
Funny, and a tricky lighting problem.
05/10/2002 10:52:00 AM
Nice shot, I dont know if I would attempt to eat something that big but still a nice shot.

That's one big egg. I think a hgher, more level camera position would have helped the composition. My eyes get pulled away from the foreground, and I can't remember the last time I saw a table setting from this low a perspective. The glare from the window caused the interior to underexpose a little, and you got some noise on the egg and in the walls as a result.

Now, that's a big egg! I like the use of white and the black stand. The photo seems to be a little bit tipped to the right.
05/09/2002 05:13:00 PM
i like the simplicity, the symmetry, and the colors, i wish to heck the horizon line was level, it's off just enough to be disturbing, and not enough to look intentional :)
05/09/2002 02:43:00 PM
What kind of egg is that supposed to be? This is a very elegant setup.
05/09/2002 12:12:00 PM
good lord, why are you hiding the ostriches
05/09/2002 07:11:00 AM
Heck, this looks like it could be for lunch and supper, too! On one hand, I kinda like all the light colors, but that makes the egg holder almost become the focal point of the picture. I assume you were wanting the egg to be that. Maybe if it had some more colors in it somewhere (the picture, not the egg).
05/07/2002 11:18:00 PM
The ISO on this shot seems a little high -- the photo is slightly grainy. This seems pretty important, since the smoothness of the egg is lost.
05/07/2002 09:07:00 PM
I enjoyed the humor of this photo. That's a BIG egg. Made me look twice. Most excellent. I like the composition. I think the choice to go with whites and not make the egg really stand out was a good choice.
05/07/2002 08:58:00 PM
I love the composition. I think it would have made a great shot if the colors were more natural. It appears that the white balance may be off? Nice effort.
05/07/2002 08:49:00 PM
I love all the whites, and the HUGE egg. Just a tiny bit dark, but otherwise very good. I like the focus.
05/07/2002 02:03:00 PM
In terms of centering, lighting and concept, I like it.
05/07/2002 12:31:00 PM
This photo is so beautifully set up and photographed. I love it, especially the light filtering through the blinds in the background.
05/07/2002 06:43:00 AM
too much white in the pic, not enough contrast but nice pic and idea
05/07/2002 01:42:00 AM
beautiful table, scary egg!
05/06/2002 11:36:00 PM
Simple, elegant and the extra big egg sets the ad apart.

Well photographed too. Nice job.
05/06/2002 03:07:00 PM
I like mine scrambled and i guess i'll only need ONE... :) Good job!
05/06/2002 02:10:00 PM
strange, i like it
05/06/2002 01:30:00 PM
A little contrast might have been nice, it's soooo white! Photo 9 Advert 9 Creativity 8 total 9
