Hi, it's getting down to the wire and I don't think I've got enough in the way of picturesque, so I am now trying to decide which of the two irregulars I've got to use... I posted them earlier, but I can't decide which one, I think the brown egg stands out more in the first, but I think #2 has a little more artistic appeal...

#1

#2

Thanks,
Ben

    The strong light in the second one makes me think of sunrise, and therefore breakfast, a traditional time of day to eat eggs.

    So I'm predisposed to prefer it. But the shape of the light, the shadows, doesn't seem to complement the shape of the eggs and the carton, IMHO.
    Sid.

    I was initially leaning towards number 2 and was hoping someone would confirm it...

    I've posted #1, but i'm still debating about it...

    Well... I changed my mind, I decided to post #2, I think it's the one I like, and while the general preference seems to be the other one. I guess it's one of those gut feeling decisions... :D

    Yes, that was one of the things I liked about that one, the brown egg was positioned a little better, I wish I had gotten one with that positioning, and the second ones lighting... it was a tough decision...

    Thanks,

    Thanks Amy!

    It's always interesting to see how different people view the same photo, the harsh lighting is what initially drew my attention to the 2nd one :)

    Now I see what you mean... :D I assumed you were saying go for the first

    Thanks!
