Interesting subject and setup. Seems like the lighting could have been a little better, and the composition is a bit cluttered, but good work on capturing the theme.

Appears to have a slight color cast on my monitor, but sharp and color come through well. The model's concentration on the flask remind me an actual person in a chem lab.

Good lighting but the subject is a bit boring...

really busy, and doesn't seem to balance out very well.

Nicely in situ and it does not look too contrived. 9.

Nice props !!! I wish I would have found props like that for this challenge. The yellow thing looks awesome, with the bubble and stuff.

The composition isn't really good though. The frame looks busy and lacks a subject, there are too many things that the eyes just jump between. Perhaps you should have somehow made the person stand out a bit more to be the main subject.

I think the bottom line is that the image is to complicated and busy.

With so much coloration going on, it's a tad busy. I love the facial expression though, and the goggles. I'd like it in sepia or BW maybe even with a hint of grain - to make it look like an old science textbook. Good effort overall.
