 Made a soap solution and formed a ring shape out of a paper clip, gave it to my four years old and let her out in the backyard and I had the perfect setup for a shot, right? WRONG .. She insisted on blowing every good shot I had, once by blowing soap right into my lens, another by spilling the soap, so finally I had one shot that I thought I can use for this challenge. Cropped, unsharp mask, frame and here it is.

6 - Nice 'line', just wish the bubbles were more defined/clearer. Good angle, not sure on the frame.

I like this shot, though there seems to be a lot of empty space in the top right corner. The reflection in the bubbes is funky, reminds me of marbles.

With just a bit quicker shutter speed to stop the bubbles even more, this would be a great shot. I like the composition alot, and the soft background.

Sharper bubbles and I'd ten this! Still a high scorer for me! Great comp and interesting subject matter. It has motion and a great DOF.

I love the diagonal sense of the line of bubbles. I'd work on her skin tones as they appear too light and too pink. Adjusting curves could fix that. Good use of negative space and the DOF is spot on.

I like how you were able to capture the symetrical spacing between the bubbles. Fairly good detail, I like it.
