Nice idea for a subject, but it really needs to be in focus

Focus, please!

blurry and the composition is somewhat off, an interesting subject, but lacks in execution - it's especially tough if you're shooting your own hand.

Needs sharper focus

Dont know if the egg is the reprentitation of strenght or is it the hand who brakes it?
To be honest then I think this image is technically hopeless and everything else than eyecaching. The main subject(s) are out of focus and if there is anything in focus than it is the background sheet. Iron it next time.
But dont give up and continue experimenting.

Image out of focus and "unironed" backdrop is distracting.

Looks like the focus is on the background, not the subject. Also - the amount of red in the fingers does not look natural.

needs better focus

Blurry, boring, and you should iron your background.

looks like you took this yourself. focus not clear and the hotspot from the flash off you thumb looks distracting. also your backdrop needs to be ironed.

The poor focus makes this a poor photo.

Iron the sheet to make a better background, check that the egg is in focus.

I think that this shows weakness rather than strength.

too fuzzy

not in focus, background is nicely lit, but the hand is not

finger seems out of focus, backround a bit dull (I would have tried to take out the shadows on it). Crop seems a bit strange as well. Would keep more of the hand in frame.

I like the drip on the egg. Composition could be improved by showing more of the top of the hand and/or cropping out the bottom. Pity it's out of focus (background is sharp!)

The egg and hand are out of focus and not particularly well lit. Good idea, but the technical quality lets it down.

Could be a bit more in focus
