COMPOSITION

I like the ring of blue and the haze around the blue light. The haze seems to lead my eyes around the light nicely and without it I am sure that it would not have had nearly the same effect.

I also like the fact that the ring is in the center of the photo as I think to have put it to one side may have taken away from the effect.

BACKGROUND

IMO I really like the way that this photo almost seems to fade into the black background.

CAMERA WORK

I think the focus is almost perfect for this photo. The only thing I wish wasn't so clear was the highlights on the circle itself. IMO they seem a little bright to me.

MY OPINION

I think that this is an interesting photo but I must say that it is not something that I would like to look at for hours on end.

As for meeting the challenge (which is a big part of what this site is all about) IMO I don't really think of a destination when I look at this image. Your title helped a lot but I still don't think it quite got it there.

Otherwise, well done!

This doesn't look like much of a destination to me. I get your title, I just don't think your image portrays it like I would imagine in my own head. I think it is the ring of light in the dead center that ruins it for me.

This is a beautiful abstract image. It seems a little difficult to tie it to the idea of a destinations, but I like it very much.

I really like the lighting. My eyes keep "diving" through the center in the hopes of seeing what there is. :-)

Destination? Yes. Color well done? Yes. Composition? Well, honestly, its a little boring. As a conceptual piece it works, much like modern art, but as a photograph it doesn't hold my attention for long. I really like the lighting effect you acheived. Also enjoy the fade to black. 7 - good luck in the challenge.
