Hm...there is not a lot that takes away from the beauty of this photo. The bottle looks very crisp and clear, but the top rim is blurred - did you mean to do that?

I like the touches of color in it - it accents the blue well, and makes the colors themselves more clear. However, I would have maybe put brighter colored rocks in the bottle - just to make them stand out more.

I like how blue this picture is - it makes it feel cool and peaceful, especially with the white splashes. The gleam on the pebbles also adds those feelings. Overall, I think this is an excellent photo and incredibly well done.

What do you think?

While I wasn't sure what I should take away from this photo, it did have such nice composition that I couldn't help but stare at it for a good 2 minutes.

I love the blue and white color scheme, the ever subtle light refraction blends in quite nicely. The photo has a very calming nature to it, and the title of the work is ever so intriguing.

However, again, I'm not exactly sure after much contemplation how lost messages related to this image of sheltered rocks, trapped inside a jar. Abstract titles are only okay if the viewer can extract the actual meaning from the piece.

I found the darker black-ish blue blotches in this piece to be a bit too menacing, and took away from the calming nature of the piece.

Overall, great great job on this. You're going on my deviantWatch
