The bokeh is a tad overwhelming, wish you had lid the shell better and made it more prominent..

IMO, the bokeh overpowers the shell, instead of complementing the composition

Bokeh is great, just too bad that the shell doesn't stand out more. It seems like it needs to be a little bit more in focus.

Definitely used bokeh, but it overpowers the subject. Need maybe lower iso, and perhaps an exposure compensation would have calmed down the bokeh.

Plenty of circles but they are just overpowering your front image. It just feels like two radically different elements put together with no purpose. The shell just isn't pullin gits weight in the shot.

Very pleasing and beautiful circular bokeh. Would like to see more light on your shell and the edging on the sheel, particularly on the right side, looks artificial and is a distraction from an otherwise superb image.

It took the title to help me see the shell. Very nice bokeh. I think a brighter shell or maybe a different angle or more lighting on the shell might nudge the score up a bit more. Something to make the shell stand out just a bit more that's all.
