Greetings from the Critique Club

Great find! I don't know much about mathematics, but somehow I feel sure this has something to do with Pi!

What I do know is that I think it's just fine technically, and compositionally, it fairly leaps out of the screen at me. I very much like the little ellipse in the middle. I don't know your reason for putting the large ellipse off center vertically, but it works for me. (Although it didn't for some of our voters) You received a respectable score, in this tough Challenge and you have an image that you can enjoy.

Keep up the good work.

This is nice, but I'd like a little more context so I can know what I'm looking at. It's a little confusing. Still, visually very nice.

well done - I think it would be more symmetrical if the center circle was in the center--- but very nice

I would have liked to see the top of the circle included in the frame. Otherwise great shot
