I think the image fits with the ups and downs in intensity of the music. I'm liking the brilliant colors as well... kind of fits with the judgement day theme.

Really really bad edit at top of the pink balloon totally wastes this for me.. i assume editing out whatever was holding it all up. This should have been a dead easy edit, buts its just been done so badly that eye goes straight to the edit.

I've been looking at this all week, loving it, and couldn't wait to see it on my good monitor. Now that I have, well, wow. It's an absolute beauty. Cool tones, graceful and beautiful. It's really a stunning piece of work.

Hahaha! I love the restraint on the color of the balloons. Very intriguing bg, too.

Looks like you've cloned something at the top of the pink balloon, very noticeable and eye-grabbing. Love the idea though, it's pretty cool. Nice complimentary balloon colours.

Unless of course the "sun" in the dome is a flash catchlight burst :) Then I understand you completely...It would 'appear' that this is the case, the low light feeding through the airbrick window looks late afternoon golden and it has made a relief of the green outer plaster lumps/inconsistencies top left/top right, however it's created by the ring of flourescent tubes that you cleverly avoided photographing. I actually like the texture it's created there Rian. It's nice to know a place and visualise the photographers thinking and positioning.

Needless to say I missed this challenge and after looking at your recent Blue, realised where this was :) Great angle. Only a photographer who takes his craft seriously has this type of dedication. patience. Others just snap and walk away.
