this is a strange composition, the juxtaposition of the oriental carving and the mystic bokeh. here, the bokeh is as much the subject as is the carving, as opposed to being a subtle enhancer. you are on the right track, i just think the image would have been a bit stronger if the dots of light were muted a bit. also, the proximity to the carving and the way it fills the left side of the frame also gives a feeling of invasion of personal space, as if it's too close to me, or i'm too close to it. neither really works well if you are trying to convey a sense of meditation.
Very nice bokeh and goode placement of subject, although I think it needed to be turned towards the camera more, so that it becomes more obvious what it actually is. I think that would make it more interesting. Bumping up.
It's a fairly striking image, but it's like the bokeh are taking over the picture, for me. The two sides don't seem to be working together all that well.
