great idea, but the dolphin isn't really in focus, and could stand to be polished up a little first, as well

I like the colors and the subject is nice. It suffers a bit from lack of focus.

good choice - i was trying very hard to find something that might reflect light in an interesting manner... however, to achieve a great score, blurriness and a soft focus is a bit of a disadvantage. was this taken with the camera in your hands? if so, may i recommend putting the camera down, maybe on a pile of books or cds (or get a mini 6 inch tri-pod for like 20 bucks / 10 quid) and using the timer built in the camera. no shake, and perfect focus will be yours. the brightness could also be toned down a bit - try playing with the brightness and contrast on whatever software you have. compostion though is really good, and the choice of colours works well - the red background is lovely.

focus is poor, unfortunately

Excellent color and composition, but the dolphin looks out of focus

Looks a little out of focus.

The colors in your picture are nice but it is very blurry and grainy.

Needed better focus.

Out of focus

Out of focus. Perhaps a larger aperture and faster shutter speed?

Very blurry - sharpness would look great with the crystal. Looks like a good clean background.

bit blurry

Focus is your main problem here. With better focus the balance of the photo would be quite nice.

Looks like you've got quite a bit of camera shake?
