I think this shot has been harshly judged. It's got some lovely, smooth tones and an intriguing composition. Its size is not a major benefit but it's still pretty.
Composition could benefit from being more off-centre.
Where? I've looked at this shot several times and each time I get a little dizzy from the way the circles go around but have yet been able to define the lightbulb itself, unless it's a reflection of one and I'm missing that. It's also a bit on the small side, hard to really see what's going on. I started with a 3 but am going to bump to a 4 and will probably be back again.
Hrm.. a nice rendition of a light bulb. I like the vantage point it is taken from, I also like the over all neutral color tone of the image. I do wish it was larger though, I think detail is lost due to its size - this factor had a negative impact for me. I like the soft focus on the bulb, giving it a nice glow instead of the regular harshness - I think it also helps make it more interesting than it would be if it was in complete focus. 7
