I'm sorry, I don't normally take borders into account when voting, but I think this one is too much of a distraction to ignore. Perhaps if it was the same yellowy colour as the photo and a bit thinner it would be okay? As for the photo, I like the high key approach.

This would be a better picture if it was not so washed out. It looks a little grainy. A women is so beautiful and sexy when they are pregnant. They give off a glow. You should show it. Still good ideal and work.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

I downloaded this to my Critique Club folder so I could view it in PS and crop out the border which I found really overwhelming and unattractive, point I made rather too bluntly during the voting.

I really enjoy the vibrant contrast between the purple and yellow which, as I'm sure you're aware, are complementary colors. While it is possible that centering the yellow would make a more dynamic composition, I'm not convinced of this. I rather enjoy the off-center placement.

I agree with the other commenters that the water droplet adds a distracting note to an otherwise very simple, dynamic scheme of color and radiating lines. This is just a nit but I feel this could have been cropped to eliminate the blurry patch of grey-blue at the bottom right corner which detracts from the simplicity of the purple and yellow.

This is the kind of composition that would look fabulous blown-up extra-large.

One of my favorites this challenge -- wild colors (water drop detracts from composition IMHO)
