I like this picture a lot.
Very original idea, and very well executed. I like the abstract touch. My eyes keep being captivated by the shapes. I guess this is the reason you didn't do better at the time of the challenge: this picture is not focused enough on colors. The shapes are too complex: they drive the attention.
But outside the original theme, it is an excellent picture IMO.

Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi Geocide...

This is an excellent color shot... I really like the abstract nature of it. It took me a while to figure out what I was looking at translucent and colored CD cases...

I read through all your 'nice job' comments :) No one really wanted to step up to the plate for you on the comments this week...

Compositionally, I think you could have created a higher impact by going with a square frame rather than rectangluar. Why? Because the 'centered' composition can be a little awkward sometimes. I believe that when you have an image such as this one, using a square frame with less empty space on both sides works better. Your image is still centered, but it doesn't really jump up and scream 'centered orientation' when it's in a tighter square area.

Keep up the good work :)

I agree with BadPigg. I can't understand why anyone would score you 1 or 2 for this shot.

Nice job, this in no way deserves a single 1 or any 2's. Those brought your score down. You should have placed higher in my opinion.

Great. Abstract enough to rouse an interest, yet everybody knows what it is. Well done!

Interesting idea and pattern. I think overall the colors are a bit darker than I'd like, especially along the edges. The holder is also necessary BUT distracting.

It took me a while to work out what it is. What a great idea! CD-covers! So simple but so effective, my hat off to you.
