Ah.. the curse of a fantastic abstract work as a DPC challenge entry.
This is easily a 6.5 - 6.8 type shot (the shallow DOF really hurts this I think, keeping it from 7 in my mind), but people here *hate* abstracts.. it's always been the way. If you can, look up Dax and check out her work.. stunning color abstracts that just don't ever get the voting that they deserve.. and you can see it with your shot.
This site is a one-trick pony site, really. Voters are looking for, and want, only one thing. The true challenge, if you want to ribbon, is giving them that thing... which is usually something a lot of people really couldn't care to photograph.
Shows great imagination and theres enough shapes to create interest in the picture, however I find it a bit too busy and almost get the feeling too many styles were trying to be accomplished all at once Bttm front has blurring, some high contrast with the small colors middle right geometric bubbles, yellow curves running through parts of it. A great idea but maybe just a little too much "7"
Very nice shot, love the angles of the bubble edges, wouldn't it be cool if the one section with the bright colors was filled in. Have no idea what the background was but I'd like less brown. 7
