  I hope you entered this one in the "Elements of Design" category Jeff. The design captures and holds your attention because of 3's. There are three categories of objects in the image, the eggs, the plate and the black background. (The black background because of the way you framed it becomes part of the design). Then there's three eggs and three eggs plus there's three sets of two eggs.

Don't ask me why, but as soon as I saw it the first time it just grabbed me and I saw all those groups of 3 immediately. I like images that make me stop and think, or pause and reflect, or tie me in emotionally. This is one of the "stop and think" ones. Good lighting, good POV, and good presentation!

  Don't know how I missed this Jeff. Excellent presentation and execution. The plate is a real plus for me ... exactly like the one's my mom had when I was a kid ... do you know the story behind the plate design?

  This china is called Blue Willow and this is the story/legend behind it ...

Once there lived a very wealthy mandarin who had a beautiful daughter named Hong Shee, who fell in love with her fatherĀ“s secretary, a man named Chang. To keep them apart, the father imprisoned his daughter in the palace. One day she escaped, and the two lovers raced over the bridge to a waiting boat. They managed to elude the mandarin, reach the boat, and sail away. A storm developed; the boat foundered; and the couple were lost at sea. It is said that two love birds appeared immediately thereafter - the spirits of Hong Shee and Chang, and live on to this day.

And some more info ... Blue Willow was first offered about 200 years ago by a famous English maker of fine china. Blue Willow is still the most popular pattern to ever appear on dinnerware. The popularity of the pattern has not faded with time or life style changes as fads and fashions usually do. Blue Willow is as collectible today as ever and is still being made in England and in many countries around the world.
