Greetings from the Critique Club

(Sigh) How does one critique an abstract... Very carefully, I know.

Seriously, I like this a lot. The composition is delightful, keeping this viewer in the picture a long time. The colors are pleasant, making the image quietly pleasing as well.

Because many of our viewers/voters have monitors calibrated differently, I've found that 'dark' images sometimes fare badly, simply because viewers can't see them properly. That's the nature of the game, and I guess it's consideration depending on what you're looking for in an entry. Personally, I'm glad you entered this one, 'cause it is lovely and a pleasure to view.

I like the idea and lighting, but I feel a little bit out of focus

Cool! I don't really like the border. Also, so little of the photo is in focus that it's hard to tell what it is at first. But I LOVE the colors and the deep shadows! Neat job!

Sad that it is a bit too dark...

the black background disappears this bubble too much

A tad too dark and I'd prefer it a bit crisper on the edges of the bubble. I like the blue-green tone.

This is so minimal it really takes on an air of mysteriousness. I like the color tones. Well done!

Excellent colors and composition. For my tastes, focus would be on the reflection in the bubble itself. Excellent entry, regardless!

Creative lighting. Top is too dark - takes out the top of the bubble.

Very nice tones, wish it was just a tad brighter. 8 from me.
