Kudos for Magnús for suggesting the crop. This is a gold pin inside a blue glass - mostly refelctions. The only part that is "solid" is the loop in the bottom right.

They might as well just assign your entire portfolio to me. lol I've gotten the last 3. :)
This is such a simple shot, yet very effective. The color is great, and definately fits the challenge in my opinion. Blue/Orange.
Abstracts are hard for me to comment on sometimes. Most of the time focus is unimportant in an abstract, but there are parts here that I can see have good focus. The center of the photo along the bottom for example.
I like how this splits the photo. Not right in the center, but off center a bit, and also the bit of blue reflections that go over the orange looks nice as well.
I like how it seems to swirl together. While I'm not usually a huge fan of abstracts, I'm liking this one quite a bit. Excellent creativity and execution.
If I HAD to make a suggestion for improvement, I would mention that the little speckles throughout the shot are a minor distraction, and I'd find a way to remove those. Now that the challenge is done. Editing is definately an option.

Honestly - have no idea what I am looking at, but know I like it!. Great job - makes you want to keep looking at it. Love the composition and cropping, and think it looks great without a border. Hope you do very well in the challenge:)
Okay, this is just plain cool. I know, that's not a terribly useful comment, but it is my reaction. I like the way that the outer top to inner center edges flow light to dark in equivalent contrast levels, very nice emphasis (whether intentional or not).
I see photos like this and I like abstracts more and more. Even though I think it is slightly dark I really like the colors and the composition. I'm not quite sure about the wide cropping though. -T
