===== From fcueto@rice.edu: I like the concept a lot. My main complaint would be the position of the central bubble. My brain was processing it as a caricaturesque eye. Otherwise, good job. A larger image would have been nicer, too. ===== From dbn_3@yahoo.com: The bubbles were the part that I focused on immediately. They look really out of place as you said. Maybe pulling back and showing the umbillical cord would be enough without trying to model liquid. ===== From jyrehby@hotmail.com: Pros: interesting concept, nice colors, good use of the focal blur. Good modelling also. Cons: A bit too much close-up, maybe. Not enough detail to make a real winner. ===== From file: Very nice work. Slightly off-topic, though? Notable for lighting, composition, modelling
