Great effect. I like it. It makes them look as if they are being sucked up into a whirlwind into the sky.
I am assuming that because the jacks are a flourescent green, that the balls are suposed to be flourescent red. This would explain why they are bright. lol
However, they do almost look orange to me, and orange and green aren't complimentary. No matter. Still a good shot.
The sky is a little dark. I'm wondering though if I like that aspect about this because if the sky was nice and bright, it would take away from the jacks and balls. So maybe by having a darker sky, it helps the jacks stand out better?
Focus and clarity look just fine to me as well.
The angle and framing/cropping are great. You have all of the subject within the frame, and haven't cropped anything in half. I also like the depth. The ones near the top are smaller than the ones in the front. Great shot!

Wow- this is very different! meets challenge - would like to know how this was done! Would be interesting to see against a different background - like a plain white perhaps. Good luck in the challenge:)
I like how the jacks and balls seem to be hovering in the sky (with their reflections) very Magrite. vivid colors - but too loose a composition. If, as the title implies, they are supposed to be falling like bombs, I don't get that feeling (perhaps it is the reflections)
I think the sky reflection is probably hurting this shot more than anything... the blue is a bit too dark for my taste and the reds are quite hot... my sony has trouble with reds in sunlight... maybe this is a sony shot... :) = 5
