Caption

For many living beings in our universe an egg is possibly the begining.

I know that this statement is disputed as some dogmatic people believe that birds was on Earth created first and then only the hen was able to lay the first egg. If they are right, then my proposal for the theme "Beginnings" is out of topic!

On the fullscreen version of this Easter egg, the subject looks like if the viewer was hovering above a mysterious red celestial body on which he may soft land by simply zooming in. There are seasons on its surface as the "Sun" is lighting the Northern hemisphere: like on Earth, it's Spring time there.

Is there life on or inside this strange exo-planet?
