Is it me, or is there a lot of noise in this picture. It is a nice picture but I would be careful of noise. That, or the star fruit is super small and we're getting in close to your skin and that's just the texture of the skin. 6 from me.

Originally posted by MattO: Greetings from the critique club. FIrst off let me say this is a nice idea from the challenge stand point. I like the many bubbles and the negative space. My biggest concern with this shot is the lack of focus. I can see the bubble to the left almost in focus, just a touch off, but the shallow DOF and the lack of overall focus takes away from the shot. User a larger number Fstop will get deeper DOF and more in focus. Good luck in future challenges. MattO

Thank you MattO for you input. Many viewers expressed the same opinions and consequently can strive for an image with greater clarity, sharpness.

Nature's symmentry. It's probably a matter of opinion, but I find the texture of the background distracting. However, it does mimic the texture in the star fruit and symmetry is the challenge. Nice entry!

I think if these were in focus this pic would have done really well because the colors are gorgeous!
