Pretty clever! Not sure I've seen alphabet pasta before. I like the backlighting, and I like the jumble of it all - sort of representative of the confusion of DPC, isn't it?

HI from the Critique Club

You asked for your shot in this challenge to have a comment from one of the members in the Critique Club.

this is such a fun cool shot!!!

There really is nothing that I can think of that you could do differently, maybe dodgeing the yellows a little to make them brighter. I am not sure why you used a gaussian blur on this though as it could be a just a tad sharper.

Overall, fun cool shot that did well!
