I *REALLY* don't get it, but it's a lovely, albeit obtuse entry....5

I can't tell if the "I don't get it" response is intentional here, but if it is, bravo...that would truly be Zen. 8

Colors in the rock are really nice. I like the off balance feel it gives to the shot.

Not sure I get the connection of pasta and the geode but it's a cool photo. The colours and detail of the stone are nice.

I love the striking colors and striations on the gem, but I have failed to understand the concept. This could possibly have a negative affect on your score, although, i hope not.

I am not sure I understand why you chose the title you chose or what the shell pasta as the secondary subject, but that is a discussion for another time. The shot is beautifully lit and composed, for what you were creating. I think the shot of mother natures beauty buried in a crusty exterior might provoke some thoughts.
