 Technically, this shot isn't the greatest (which unfortunately leads me to believe it won't score very well), but I love the ethereal atmosphere and the softness of it. It feels like you're being suspended in a dream.

Adjusting Levels
Slight boost in Cyan/Green Saturation
Increasing Midtone Contrast
Sharpen
Resize
Burned the hands on the watch for added contrast

My attention is drawn to the dial on the top of the watch. It seems to be the most in focus and it stands out more than the hands of the watch face.

Wow, I really like the DOF and the bokeh. I just wish that there was a tad more contrast.
