That glare is way too strong.

Not sure how this will go over with others here. But I love it. I gave it an 8. Just a little to much glare on the top water for me. Still a great photo and idea.

Simple. If it weren't for the blown areas in the middle row, this would have gotten a 10 from me. But the originality and execution deserve at least a 9. So here it is.

Comment by graphicfunk:
many blowouts but nonetheless the image remains impressive with the red drop taking full attention. Bumping up.

Kinda gross but kinda cool - good idea. Good background. The flare off the metal is a little distracting though.

Comment by xonkas:
The concept is very clever - creating a pattern, in which the strong point of the image emerges -, but I'm not sure about its execution... I don´t think the drop of blood (??) is such a strong point, perhaps due to its framing and dimension... I feel you ended up with an image less interesting than it was supoosed to (and the reflection of the light is a bit distracting too). Anyway, 6 for originality and effort.

A very interesting composition and subject, marred by the massive white flares at the center that distract and hurt the eyes. The background color is nice.
