Focus Focus! I'm sure you don't need telling to ignore those cries, but another vote of confidence won't hurt, I'm sure. I never had the time to round to voting on everything, let alone adjusting those votes to their final standings, but this would i think have been high up that list, if not at the top. Sure some folks just don't go for the stylised thing, but some fine judges have approved wholeheartedly too.

I get the impression that you achieved exactly what you were after - truly competent work. One thing only would I change: that slightly weird heart-shaped patch of darkness image left (or eye shaped) - once seen it can't be escaped, and IMO of course, doesn't add anything.

And the first shot I've added to favourites in a while.

My favorite photographs are those that tell the viewer something beyond what's in the frame. This shot is one of the. I'm sure you're getting hammered but I love the blur and the grain. It really makes this shot. The composition is excellent. 10.

Interesting effect, I wonder how it was done. You will have to let us in on your methodology. I think that this could be strengthened by adding more stars in the background, other than that, nice job!
