This was the product of a six other shots. I had to take a lot to get the right font (printed out with photoshop), get the right letter placement, get the right lighting, and so forth. I wish that the yolk would have been circular, instead of just a blob, but I think that would have been nigh impossible. I love this shot anyway, I think it's the best one I've ever submitted to DPchallenge.

Challenge: You met the challenge perfectly while still being very creative.
Technique: Trying something new is always fun, and I'm glad you went out and tried this! The yolk is very dark - in the future, simply put a "spotlight" on the yolk, or even a bright yellow circular piece of paper underneith it to make it show up better. Really, that's the only critisism you received here, but it's an easy fix.
Overall: Very clever and fun to look at. I really like your approach, and I'm sorry you didn't score a bit higher. Keep trying! You are doing great and your creativity is really showing!
Fun image, with a lot of whimsical mood to it's basic idea. It is a little dark for me for no apparent reason: in other words, I can't see that the darkness enhances the image in any strong way. Try using manual focus to make sure the eggs are in focus.
