The young lady in the photo is one of my employees. She said she is not shy when it comes to having her picture taken so I talked her into letting Me use her in the B challenge...and here she is.

I learned an important lesson....Leave the border at home next time. Thank you all for helping Me to be a better photographer!

The border took away from the photo.

Nice DOF. The border does not enhance your image.

not fond of the border because it cuts into her face and into the bubbles, but I like the composition, and the DOF (blurred bg especially). :)

Excellent detail! The shallow DOF really highlights your subject.

I think your border is technically not a border. It doesn't work for this picture, either. I like the subject and the composition is wonderful. The colors are great and the blur/focus/dof works well. I would have flipped this picture around completely. Gone left to right with it. More natural flow. Good luck. 9 (-1 for border issues)

A very well composed shot with very effective use of depth of field. It might have been a bit better if the bubbles did not go past the edge, this has a tendency to lead one out of the frame. Nice work though. 7

Found the border a little distracting as it disects the bubble on the left - and this is the direction I'm last looking as I follow the flow of the bubbles.
Great entry for the B challenge though

I think your border actually detracts from an perfectly good image.
