Greetings from the Critique Club!

When I first look at this photograph, the first thing that strikes me is that I love the way the bubbles in the foreground set off against the dark blue background. I don't think I love the sea of white in the background as much, though.

I'm not quite sure where to go with that, though, as I tried playing around with different crops and such, and can't really find one I like better. I might have liked to see the bubbles in a shallower bowl, perhaps, or something that allowed us to enjoy more of the deep color and intriguing geometry that works so well in the foreground. I guess the best way to put it is that at least to me, the angles and deep blues in the foreground make a promise that the background doesn't quite deliver. That foreground shows a lot of potential, and if it would be possible to capture a full frame of that, I think you'll really have something unique and special.

Nice, but a little bit grainy at the top.

Nice colors, and I like the facets formed where they are stuck together. Look a little like diamonds. I think I would like it better with the top of the image cropped off.
