"What makes those lines like that?"
I'm glad you asked. *grin* The egg is on a piece of glass raised high above two sheets of colored paper on a white poster board, with a bit of white showing between the colors.
The varying thickness of the eggwhite (albumin -- there's your 'Word For The Day') distorts the colors below in a pattern.

great take on the original. I love the pattern that the red, yellow and white made. seems to be in pretty good focus and the composition is great. my only nitpick is maybe having another small light shining from the topside of the photo would have lit up the yolk part better
