This must have been a challenging shot to get. I think the composition would be stronger if you cropped the top just under the second bright spot on the left most edge. Nice job.

It's a very imaginative picture and I gave it one of the highest marks. I think, however, there's room for improvement: can you make the remnants of the baloon a bit clearer and the needle more basic, so the complex form of it wouldn't take our attention. In fact, it took me a few moments to realise it's just a pin, not something else. But, again, a great picture overall.

I like shots like this. I love to see explosions captured on film--so amazingly dynamic. That being said I think this one should be a bit sharper (ie the shutterspeed maybe was a bit slow), it would be better in my mind to see the plastic rupturing rather than just see a shadow of it.

Wow! Lots of dynamics! I love how the glass cracks up. The shot would look even nicer in b/w + level adjustment (+ colored filter if you like).
