Quail and hen eggs (i did not found dove eggs).
Natural light, near the window of my kitchen, with drawing paper under eggs.
Honestly i found the title after. A the beginning were only eggs, and my wife had the suggestion to add a hammer. I took one and made a shot. After i replaced the hammer by this tool to soft the meat, which i do not know the name in english.
I found it more suggestive.
The title for the challenge came during the sunday.

Choice of color and composition in this image is excellant. The soft shadow is terrific.
It is difficult to create a color image with the same balance of light and shadow that monochrome images have when they are rated high. But this images does it beautifully. I really like the combination of browns that set this image a cut above the others.
My fellow political/symbolic photographer! Well done. Symbolism is clear, to me at least, and the composition, lighting and shadows compliment it well.
Good eggs. Tthe hammer head is overexposed on one side, under at the other. Perhaps a reflector to get some light back from this side would have helped.
Unclear about the statement you are making here...it would seem you have a fairly strong political opinion but this message is not coming through for me...still a pretty nice photo overall.
