Dark and mysterious. I love the off-focus on the background character. One of the few photos in this challenge where the bubble is in sharp focus. Good job.

Perfect bubble! My favourite up to now!

The lighting on the bubble is excellent, and would have scored higher just for the bubble. I find the face in background a bit too distracting

badass!! the reflections on the bubble are killer and so is the half lit face in the back..(which looks like a poster, but it still looks good) i really like blue...

the golden curtains were very good to you in this image! Love the complimentary colors, great composition. My thought is this isn't really a bubble, I've never seen one with that much reflection, but it's a very nice image - 8 for now

The colors, the composition and the bubble itself are flawless. Congratulations!!

I like this approach alot, you've got the space in the bacground divided nicely with the really dark, and the outline. It's an intresting take it's gives this dark feeling to the bubble theme, where all others are happy yours is dark... nice take, and the way the colour works with the bubble is really nice too.

The bubble is in perfect focus. Our eyes are immediately drawn to it. Then we notice the the person in the background with his/her lips puckered such that leads us to believe that he/she blew this bubble from his/her lips. The blue tones and lighting adds to the mood of calm and serene, not to mention adds a hint of mystery as in "the object appears out of the blue - from which did it come and who is the mysterious figure in the background.". Good job.
