Thank you for showing your subject in his environment. Doing what scientists do. The angle of the shot seems to be elongating the microscope and test tubes while diminishing the person. Just an observation.

Definitely meets the challenge criteria, but seems a bit "studio", some natural business in the background would have helped this shot.

I love this image -- messy, blurry and intersting. Very underrated, imo.

Comment by Photologist:
Great composition, but it appears that this scientist's face is outside the depth-of-field. :-(

I still like this shot quite alot. Too bad it didn't do better. I am sure you will bounce back to form this next week.

Totally abstract, but I like it. I am wondering what this is a photo of and if that has a relation to your choice of title.

I'm really dismayed to see so many simple abstracts in such a wide open challenge. You have a fine image here, and the muted colors look good, but when the consequences of your camera action, and play of light and color seem so intentional, it makes it hard to qualify a disorganized, messy element here.

I was really looking for more creativity, and more interesting, engaging subject matter, and not simply abstracts.
