Greetings from the Critique Club
Very good finish in a difficult challenge. This is a beautiful, unique image, nicely done.
Positives: The sense of "unreal", of being in a different world of sorts. The detail on the face. The water at the top, in particular at the top right. The little droplet trails.
Negatives: The image speaks of breathing, and even though bubbles are there, and part of breathing underwater, it doesn't convey "bubbles" at first glance. The big bubble in front of her face, even though part of the story, is a bit distracting, mainly because it is so out of focus and it doesn't look to be part of the story at first glance.
A number of your commenters mention a possible rotation. I'm not sure. I think it looks quite good this way, although a portrait orientation might be quite intriguing.
I see no problems with the image from a technical point of view, except for the lack of sharpness on the big bubble in front of ther face. You certainly managed to get a clean image, even at ISO 800. The warm tones on the skin and water are beautiful. I like it how the water shines.
Overall, a really good entry, creative, well done. Congratulations on your high finish!
Take care,
