Eggsactly ~






it is everlastingly funny
 that the proud, metaphysically ambitious,
 clamoring mind
 will hush if you give it an egg― 
Annie Dillard

Only a creative mind like yours would be able to make a simple egg look this good. Great photos.

Fascinating subject, Susan; so beautifully photographed, too. I like how you used the feather. It really emphasizes the eggs' fragility. I'd never read that quote of Annie Dillard's but it's wonderfully true. :)

your photos are perfectly beautiful, and "eggsactly" right.

And a "deviled" egg is even better, though your angelic eggs are beautiful.

I love your compositon on these photos. And the touch of the feather is perfect.

Interesting. You get so creative in your photo processing. Much more than I, although I'm in process of trying to figure out how I can do more and better.
