 Its a heart in a glass with some water in it,
I used a flashlight for lightning,
and in photoshop I used some dodging and burning and color balance and levels.

Greetings from the critique club

Hello! suprise to get your image.

I see you've been practicing with the flashlight.
This is a fine image.

The central shape is strong and I like the line of light through the heart.
The detail of the bubbles is very good.

I'm trying to decide if the rings on the right are a distraction or not.
Your correct that this needed more than the heart as far as composition.

I love the fact that it is dark and with a limited colour pallete.

To me an excellent image. I suspect it did not place higher in the challenge because it was dark. (but we've discussed that before)

Very good work.

JC

The arc shape on the right side is a bit distracting but it somehow seems to work in this image. Please don't ask me to explain that. :)

Very beautiful abstract photo. Love the subtle blue tones on the right side that contrast with the sharp centre bubbled texture. It will definitely become part of my favourites. My only suggestion in this case would have been to cleen up the bubbles from the right side bluish semicirle area as that space is nice and smooth (which in this challenge would have been legal). But that's just nitpicking, overall great photo.
