Bubble shots are hard. You did awesome on this. I agree, though, that a bit of brightness would have helped. The background is kinda drab, but bubbles scream "bright and happy" so it sets up an interesting contrast.
i love this very much. it could, methinks, do with being made just a tad brighter, and possibly the weeist bit more saturation to bring out the nice variety of colours and boost that summery feel, but that aside it's pretty much perfect. the use of blur is fantastically executed, the moment of capture interesting, natural and involving, and is basically a great image. it's odd, the more i look the more melancholy one feels, which is good given the fun naure normally associated with such activities. super.
my first weighted scoring systemâ„¢; composition + technical 3/3, challenge 1/1, post processing results 1.75/2, ooooh factor 3/3, originality 1/1 = 9.75 (okay, 10).
