Looks cool, but it's too perfect. You would probably get better results from hand drawing it, or make the shape slightly ovular, to make it feel more organic. Egg yolks are more flat in their depth. They aren't brighter in the center, but darker because they are thicker and let less light through. The light parts of the yolk come from the reflections, either soft or really defined, depending on the surrounding lighting conditions you want to show off.
@Haziq Mir You are probably right; it does look somewhat like a sun or a bubble. I am not sure about the exact number of layers though; is there a way to determine it?
@Johnny Waterman I've changed the title of the shot to "Bubble", which, I think, seems more suitable.I'll have to do another shot for egg yolk I guess.
There's some javascript files that you can find that will count your photoshop layers. I wouldn't recommend it for large PS files with hundreds of layers. It takes too long and a lot of times crashes.

It IS beautiful. Although it feels less like an egg yolk and more like a glass ball. It's a bit too "translucent" feeling to be a yolk.
Update: To the new "Bubble" titled. Absolutely perfect :)

@Alex Parker ⇢ ☁ Indeed! It looks more like a bubble on a yellow background I think.
@Mike Moloney Glad you like it :)

@Haziq Mir I believe it's not an efficient method.I guess it contains 25-30 layers.

@Johnny Waterman Just found it here. Turns out the psd contains a total of 41 layers; some of which are hidden though.

Was scared for a minute that you were making a weather app, but then realized the background and sun are the same color. Phew.

When you make your egg yolk, make the background the egg whites. That will help sell it.

You have a keen eye. Looks more solid than thin and bubbly to me though.
