waning or waxing?

for week 10 of the 52-week challenge, the challenge is to photograph egg/s. i've previously done this in high key (see https://365project.org/summerfield/365-still/2017-04-04 ). this very simple set up would have you believe that it is an easy one but i say, no! because that egg just won't sit right or else it falls off. this one did three times and it made me nervous else i'd end up cleaning eggy mess. i tried to use a hard boiled egg once but it just wouldn't stay put as it was too heavy for the forks.

here's an idea! why don't i do eggs for the week? nah, i would need to buy a carton and i don't like having too many eggs in the fridge as i rarely eat them.

I would have thought this would be relatively easy but I’ll take your word for it as I can’t be bothered to test it out. You’ve got some nice light going on in this shot

[Tbird]

Great concept!

[Rob Z]

So well done - I've tried this and failed terribly - ended up using blueberries stuck on the forks instead.... Yours is lovely in the low key. :)

Great lighting on this Vikki. It is tricky to get the egg to balance.

[Diana]

Great capture and light.

[Melvina McCaw]

Love the lighting

[Virginia Stapleton]

Superb lighting and composition. fave

[Chris Johnson]

I've struggled with eggs in a shot like this before too but glad you were able to wrangle the egg for the shot! Very nice low key effect.

I like the reflection of the light on the right side of the egg and fork. Nice composition and I'm glad the egg didn't crack. And that's no yolk.

Great shot. Well done

I do like the way the shadow falls on that egg. I don't think I would manage this shot without sacrificing a few eggs on the way.
