Too abstract. I can't tell what is supposed to be in focus or even what really IS in focus...

hard to see where the sharpness begins. Good idea but just doesn't work for me.

I would like to see this with everything in focus and the horizontal line straight, although it wouldn't have fit this challenge that way

Interesting abstract idea - let down, for me, but the fact that the over-exposure of the sun-spots makes them all llok out of focus, rather than moving through the plane of focus. I think I'd have exposed for the bright spots, and tried to use levels or curves to bring back the un-lit surface of the seat.
