volcano_lava

judges comments:
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): The photographer didn't even try. One of the absolutely worst in he bunch.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): better to eat than to shoot at. garlic rice and tapa please...
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Do I honestly need to comment on this?
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957692.jpg


tic_tac_toe

judges' comments:
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): 6 eggs vs 3 eggs... and the 3 won? Go figure.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): this is perfect for stock photography. as for the contest, i dont know.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Perfect, but the concept is not original, I have seen this too many times in stock photography!
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957690.jpg

the_repeater

judges' comments:
Jumping kinky malinki: this is funny but putting the repeater on the other side of the class would be ideal since he/she's covering his/her classmates with much shadows.
masterofnone: Not sure about this. Just too many to look at.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957688.jpg

pro_life
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): This is the total opposite of pro-life. Yes, the image is gross.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): it grossed me out as well...
not only that, it's oof and overexposed.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I was too afraid to open this image! Not only it grossed me out big time.

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957686.jpg

pressure_point
major victory: direct to the point
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): classy.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Simple and clean. Sends out the message across. Perfect!

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957684.jpg

pre_eggstoric_era
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Why a nest wasn't built instead of using a very busy scene is beyond me.

jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): extinct.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Do I really need to comment any further?
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957682.jpg

mickey
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): The 3 eggs alone woulh have been better. Adding the 3 other elements just insult the viewers intelligence.... I'm sure they can figure it out as Mickey. Just give us the punch line.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): i like the idea but there's too many distractions that deviates the concept. sayang.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): What is really your focus here?


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957680.jpg

incubation
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): the illuminating bulb is overexposed. the setup is messy with a distracting wire and merging bulbscrews. putting the chick somewhere aside from it's original position will help but it would be better if it's not in the picture.

masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Chick is blurry.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957678.jpg

gangbang
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): First, I saw the title. And I got excited. Then, I saw the image. And I'm let down.

jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): same-o, same-o. it's just who gets the better execution of the same concept.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I don't know if I am the only one seeing the same concept all over again.Cmon guys think outside the box.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957676.jpg

eggxhibit_a
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): I appreciate the effort and thought that went into this. It is simple, but high production value. However, a failing grade in technical aspects.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): burn baby burn.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Once again, hard light.

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957674.jpg

eggsandwich_with_cheese
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): bland... in a photographical sense.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): No, thanks.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Little off on the exposure.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957672.jpg

eggs_being_eggs
major victory: Its not easy being green. then again, its too green for me.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): This could have been good if only the photographer put some effort into lighting this scene.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Not sure about this image!

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957670.jpg

egglipse
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): lighting and detailed textures are great...yeah it is centered...could do better on composition.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): The texture is great, it adds a great depth.Why did you put this in the center?? It would have been a perfect image!


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957668.jpg

egg_solated
major victory: Yup, I see the green haze at the top too.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): great setup with good sharpness and nice lighting. it would be great if the umbrella weren't cropped. i can also see green cast as well on top which can be cropped
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Perfect lighting.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957666.jpg

cheery
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): looked rather gloomy.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I would have placed the egg closer to the glass, so there co-relation with it. The light on the glass bothers me.


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957664.jpg

baby_egg
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): i think i need lasik surgery...
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Is there even a pixel here that is in focus?
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): This is poorly done.

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957662.jpg

a_shameful_thing_to_do
major victory: I like this one!
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I like the fact that this is gritty and real but I don't like the noise I am seeing.


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957659.jpg

YOU_TWO_SHOWER_FIRST_F
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Good effort but badly done.
Oh, it's bath, not shower. :-)
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): ?So really, what is the focus here? The hello kitty or the duck?


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957657.jpg

TheEggSpert
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Nothing good I can say about this image.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): There's too many too look at. As much as I hate to say it, again, not well planned.


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957655.jpg

Take_Your_Egg_Shot
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): centerrrrrrredd...
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Dead center? That's your concept?
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I would try this at a different angle. Nothing special about the image.


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957652.jpg

Spartan_eggs

jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): score: 00. good artwork though.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): As far as I can see, no effort was put into the making of this image, except for the background.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957650.jpg

Prison_Break
major victory: Galing!!!
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): aside from the good tv series, i like the concept but...what's that on the black background on right? smudge? reflection?
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Not bad. One of the better submission from a very shallow pool.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Love the texture. Color and everything else. I have to look twice. I'd say the execution is perfect!
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957648.jpg



Life_At_The_Edge:
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Not quite. But I do love the reflections and mood to this.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957646.jpg


Land_Before_Time__Entry

jumping kinky malinki: for me, this one's in. (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile)
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Your title surely fits the image, other than that, nothing else to comment about.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957644.jpg

Kraken
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Patterns are good. Unfortunately, that's the only thing going for this image.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Cmon, you can do better than this!
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957642.jpg



JustEggs
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): badly lit image.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): I like the perspective, but the exposure is completely messed up.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Open wide, is this really what you were going for? Blur the entire image? I have to add the lighting is very poor.


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957639.jpg

Is_that_yours_or_mine__The_Lost___Found_Egg
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I dont think this image was given any effort at all, so why should I?
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957637.jpg

HowToBeatAnEgg101
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): a little bit busy for my eyes.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): I like the idea, but the flatness of this image turns me off.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Concept, Color, Exposure. Love it all. A finalist for me.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957635.jpg


Fertile_egg
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): this concept would be better if the pov and lighting is proper.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Bad lighting, dirty plate, cracked egg,.... fertility shpuld have a clinical feel to it. This just doesn't depict that.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I would have placed the egg in a different location and entirely shot the whole plate with it.

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957633.jpg


Eggsplode
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): good concept, poorly-done execution.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): A decent concept if done right, which isn't in this case.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I didn't like the lighting that went with this image at all.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957630.jpg

Egg_Virus
major victory: uyy, psychedelic!!! 60s ang dating!!
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): A little too busy my eyes are all over the place!
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957628.jpg


Egg_Swim

major victory:Alka-seltzer?
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Anybody can do this shot.Could use some cropping in the right buttom corner.

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957626.jpg

EGGLOVERS
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): i didnt see any relation to the concept of the image and the titling. just half-opened eggs and messy shells.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Not sure about this! Poor lighting and needs some burning all around if you are going for a black background.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957623.jpg

ADozeofGenetics
major victory: I like the subliminal concept.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): this COULD be a finalist if those grey lines (i really dont know what they are) are not in the picture.

masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I like the idea that the eggs in the background were blur and bring back the focus in the droplet of water-neat idea IMO. As I have said, I am looking for something that is different, odd and this image could be a finalist.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): I like the contrast and the sharpness of the droplet and strands. How exactly did the egg(s) play a role in all this beside being an almost non-recognizable background?
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957622.jpg

Ang_Itlog_Ko
major victory: very nationalistic! Pang independence day!!
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): very original. just minor on the top left and the line is not properly centered to the egg for symmetry.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I really really like this idea. I am just being picky with the crease on the red part of the flag.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957619.jpg


9_Balls
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): somewhat tricky in the titling..."9 balls" over a cue stick and the real cue ball. i like. this one's in.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): The stick is distracting for me although, I know you need it for this concept.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957618.jpg

EGGPOD
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): now that's what you call an entry.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I like your concept. Exactly what I am looking for, something different, something odd, except for it has no title.
cappuccino: Hi Eggpod photographer.. please PM me if the title is incorrect. Thanks!
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957616.jpg

1_day_old
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): clean, crisp and great contrast. a finalist to me.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Could have a use a little burning on the buttom part.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Clean image and simply concpt that works. Exposure and light is almost spot on.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957613.jpg

in behalf of cheerleader cez (she is having a terrible migraine right at this very moment), i'll continue posting the entries...


drop it like its hot

jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): i dont know.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): This could have been a good concept except that it is poorly done.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Poorly execution of freezing action.
cappuccino: exif to this image: Nikon D70s; taken June20, 2007; shutter: 200/ F8

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80957325.jpg


hool_EGG_ans

fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile) Not bad, but I'd like to see it more lit.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I see a grey over cast on top. This could be improved.
Major Victory: Nice but would've been better if the egg yolk would have been more exposed.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): nice concept and execution. lighting and exposure are well taken care off... one thing though is too much white space for the image. this will be definitely in my list of finalists.

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80861776.jpg

Death_Row_DPP

fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Way too many unnecessary elements that doesn't add anything to the image, but distract. The edge of the table on the lower-right corner should have been taken cared of before the shutter was pressed.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Your hand is actually too distracting. And the background is too busy for me.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): too many distracting elements such as the plant, the garden background and dirty table. although the concept is ok, the egg below is cropped... also the glass. shadows are harsh as well.
Major Victory: Drawings on the egg could be improved (A LOT).

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80861774.jpg

happy_chillin

fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): I just can't get past how messy this entire image is.
Major Victory: Subtle but then again, not that effective.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Another I don't know what to comment thing. I'm out of words because I can't seem to understand what you are trying to accomplish. The least that you could have done was to crop it nicely.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): the blue slash and "egg" is distracting. the smiley is hardly recognized.
NiceCommentator: I can't fell the happiness

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850411.jpg


dreaming_of_a_perfect_round_egg


fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Dream no more as it is round, which bothers me. It looks like a golf ball sans the dimples. It would be nice if the cat's eyes are tack sharp.
Major Victory: Is that an egg? Looks like a ball.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Exposure is way off. Not sure about the revelance of the cat to the egg.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): noise can be seen through the cat's eye and probably too much curve/level adjustment.
NiceCommentator: ano 'to high-key or cloudy?

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850410.jpg

awaiting


jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): a boiled egg seem inappropriate for the wait unless they want to eat their kin...
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): I'd prefer cleaner egg and ducks and the white line on the top-right corner takes some point away for what could have been a cohesive image.
Major Victory: Takot ako sa Cylops Mother Duck!!!
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): The lighting could have been improved but none the less, my eyes goes straight to the ducks.
NiceCommentator: The duck or the egg? The egg or the duck?

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850409.jpg

an_egg_and_a_stick

fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Close, but still off by a stop or two. The post-processing messed up the shadow.
Major Victory: A symmetrically balanced composition (well, almost). I'm just confused with the reflection. Its as if it doesn't belong to the egg.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I am not sure if you are going for a dramatic lighting but works well with this. I like the shadows and reflections but I am not sure about the placement of the subject.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): exposure is ok. i like the grain here plus a choice of b&w. good idea on the reflection that produced a good compo.
NiceCommentator: I thought its on the edge. I like the composition. (slight)

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850408.jpg

Pimp_my_Egg
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Technically, it isn't bad. Conceptually, it is weak. But better than no concept, I suppose.

Major Victory: What can I say, I'm a kid at heart. I like this. Canon eh!
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Your background is ok with me but the egg with wheels and Canon to boot, that I don't know. You could have at least cloned that Canon out.
Jumping kinky malinki: i didn't know canon produces cars?
NiceCommentator : I don't like the composition and that red thing.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850407.jpg

Lamat4
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Minor correction to my comment below:
Why was this shot at f5.3? At the very least, I'd shoot this at 16, maybe 22. It also bothers me that the egg is almost perpectly round rather than a conventional egg shape.
Major Victory: What's that green stuff on the clamp? My eyes focused on this more that the crack on the egg..
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Hard hard light! Not sure where you metered this??
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): i agree that the lighting was too harsh. didn't notice the clamps at first glance as well.


http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850406.jpg

IN_TUNE

fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Not only do I not get what this is about conceptually, it is badly executed technically. The lighting, the color, the background is not something to be desired.
Major Victory: Huh?! I don't get this. Am I missing something here?
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I honestly don't know how to comment on this. I am disappointed.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): i don't get the relevance of the egg to the piano. egg tuning? that's new...
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850405.jpg

Humpty_Dumpty_had_a_great_fall


fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Poor choice of background. The blurry background competes with the main subject for my eyes' attention, rather than complement. Nice drawing though.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Good concept overall. Focus is on the egg . It would had been great if the background was not two toned.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): composition, exposure and sharpness are ok. it fits to the theme. this can be a finalist imo.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850404.jpg

Ebon.


fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Not a bad concept if executed well. Need some color balancing to make this pop.
Major Victory: Nice play of words if one is a kapampangan. For those who are not, Ebun means Egg in kapampangan and Ibon is Bird in tagalog (but you know that already). Nice concept but not really a photographic great.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I have to add the crop factor ..sayang!
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I really like the concept. BUT, I am somehow distracted on the bird shadow.

http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850403.jpg

EGGHAUSTED
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Since the photographer didn'y put any thought into this, I won't either.
Major Victory: Molten Lava or tomato paste? The title does not depict the picture.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): The background is too busy for me.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): a dropped egg. that's about it.
NiceCommentator: Too messy. Yuck!
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80850402.jpg

Crime_Scene_investEGGation

j (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile)masterofnone: It seemed like more effort was put into the making the scene rather than really shooting the egg as a focus point. (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile)
Major Victory: Parang art project ng anak ko!
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): The scene is too busy and no real point of focus. Exposure is way off and lighting could be vastly improved. I'd expect a beach scene like this to be somewhat bright.
http://www.pbase.com/riddler214/image/80648909.jpg

egg2

NiceCommentator: I can do this without a camera. Perhaps egg1 is better.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): Did you go down in the middle of the earth? This looks like a lava core to me. Sorry I'm being picky. Try another angle perhaps?
Major Victory: Baka naman dito nang galing si Super Man? The egg from KRYPTON is about to erupt!
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): centerrrrrred.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): Original image title, notwithstanding, I don't understand what this is supposed to be. The photographer is perhaps better off trying to shoot egg3, egg4, etc.

egg_convict

NiceCommentator: I dont like the tilt and the negative space. And yeah the eggs are OOF.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): The eggs diagonally doesn't work for me. I would have put the eggs way over the top and let the "white space" eat up the entire photo, but of course that's just me. I have to agree that these eggs are OOF.
Major Victory: I like the diagonal division in the composition. But the eggs do not get my attention that much. The black triangular space relates to the black egg but the window screen provides no relevance to the white egg. Malalim sana ang ibig sabihin ng picture if the other half was all white. Although stereotypical, nakakulong nanaman ang "black".
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): the subjects (eggs) are oof. though i like contrast between the two, the tilt was somewhat distracting.
fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile): The image crop is disorienting and the eggs are out-of-focus.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): this could be a tough contender if exifs are included.

Will is your entry There?....

Thanks to the judges for their very honest (and mostly brutal) comments! One message from the judges is very clear, the judges were asked to spend time and effort in looking at the pics - we should also spend time and effort on our pics!

As far as the comment on my work, they were absolutely spot on... will do better next time.

I think I saw better Egg pictures on the forum announcing the contest

good luck to all participants! and thank you to the judges for the time and effort to critique each entry

Yup...nandun....50/50 Critique...

I seconded. The setup of my entry is messy according to one judge, I know, I shouldn't have used too many props, para hindi na mapagkamalang nasisiraan ng bait sa bahay. :D

Nice, very nice! I love the way the entries were critiqued. Good luck to those who will make the finals. :)

Viewing the entries and reading the judges call was like watching American Idol and Britain Got Talent all at the same time.

i like 2 concepts sa entries... sana makapasok sa finals. :)

Contestants... congratulations for your efforts.. clap-clap-clap!!!!

To the judges... bow ako sa t'yaga ninyong pag-aralan at suriin ang bawat images

hool_EGG_ans

fetishmaster (http://www.pbase.com/fetishmaster/profile) Not bad, but I'd like to see it more lit.
masterofnone (http://www.pbase.com/masterofnone/profile): I see a grey over cast on top. This could be improved.
Major Victory: Nice but would've been better if the egg yolk would have been more exposed.
jumping kinky malinki (http://www.pbase.com/zchizzerz/profile): nice concept and execution. lighting and exposure are well taken care off... one thing though is too much white space for the image. this will be definitely in my list of finalists.
