Cute image. I like the uniqueness of it. Good color and the bubble is nicely deliniated. I like the composition as far as using the curved flower coming from out of the top of the image, but I'm afraid the choice of bordering ruins it for me. The white totally overwhelms the image and the sharp contrast draws me out of what should be the focal point of the photograph (the flower/bubble) and instead thrusts me into the play of the black and white against each other. I gave a 4.
4 - Probably not the only one saying this, but the rotation 'diminishes' this shot in my opinion. Whatever way is right side up, I think would have made a much better, and perhaps unique in this Challenge, shot.
I can appreciate the artistic effort of the diamond shape, but for me, the white is too overpowering and overshadows the nice composition of the flower and bubble.
The composition of the elements is definately interesting but I think that the border is a little too much. Yes it does make the composition pop off the page but I think that if there was a little more dimension to the edges of the "black box area" it would move it out of the realm of flat and give it a third dimension and some depth....I am thinking that if the shot could have been accomplished with a box where the inside is deep black and the outside is white....just a random thought.
Back to the composition. I like how you have the flower curved such that it looks as if it is resting comfortabley on the bubble. The bubble is in focus but some of the details in the seperation in the flower petals are lost - it needs to be in focus better to improve sharpness so that we can appreciate the beauty of the flower as well as the bubble.
