Nice colors, very dramatic. The arrangement of the bones detracts from conveying the idea of encircling. If the bones had been arranged more in a circle, this would have been a much better image for the challenge.
I'm trying not to be a dnmc nazi.. but I do not really feel that a circle shape is key, even though the objects are encircling. I see almost more of a triangle type shape formed by the objects. But I do think this is a great photo in its own right.
