So simple, so well composed and processed. I might have considered cloning the small sliver of table in the mid-left side and the vertical growth in the top right. Then again, this is an area, I'm not confident about in the advanced rule set. Anyone willing to offer an opinion about the allowability of that amount of object removal?

Back to comment and bump the score... What perfect timing on this. The backlighting on the dust is so powerful. The background might have been too distracting had it been any better lit. This all comes together really, really well - 8

Nice capture effect. The motion blur is well done. For me, the sense of dis-equalibrium caused by the motion is contrary to this being a "good" moment in a new place. Still a strong photo - 8
