The battalion hosted an egg hunt and picnic the Saturday before Easter. Part of the festivities included a game where one person carries an egg in a spoon to their partner, transfers the egg to their partners spoon then the partner carries the egg back. As you can imagine there were a lot of broken eggs all over the place. Many were picked up quite quickly but this one got missed and I'm glad because it is still one of my favorite shots from the day. To me this is me at a compositionally high point. I just think it's a well composed shot. It's interesting and aesthetically pleasing, frankly I find it a little captivating. I would love to know why that gift kicks in sometimes and how to keep it on hand so I can do it more often. (You know on subject matter that isn't broken eggs...) But then that's the point of this blog. I hoping that the more I challenge myself to take pictures the more I will focus and think about the ways/whys I put things together and more of my shots will have the compositional qualities I admire about this one. Or I could be crazy and this is just a slightly odd shot of broken eggs.

Just curious-- what is the blue thing on the side?
