Description


The first day of spring also called the vernal equinox is when the sun is positioned above the equator, day and night are about equal in length all over the world. Rumor has it that at a specific time you're suppose to be able to stand an egg upright and it'll stay due to the Earth being in perfect balance. Thought I'd give it a try and here is the result. The egg stood upright long enough for a few snaps and thenfell over, no kidding! Thanks for lookin!

I've always heard about this but always forget to try. Only twice a year this can happen, and you've gotten an excellent capture as well. And you're not even a redhead!

Cool shot! And excellent idea here, the blemishes on the egg are unfortunate but otherwise very well done. Thanks for sharing! :) jm
