Description

No photomanipulation, but a lot of trying :p
(There is also my reflection on the bubble... )
I'm so sorry for the huge watermark but is full of stupid people that use this image without link in to my page, or worst that add their watermark on it!

Take a look to some of my other conceptual photos:

And don't forget to check my gallery ;)

Well done for capturing this first off! This must have taken a great deal of work to get just right. The dark background helps with the colours making the top of the bubble dome look lovely and capturing the reflections well.

The heart is what makes this piece jump out on a website full of amazing works. The rich colour and symbolic nature of it makes it very appealing. There is a lot of bubble art in the world so standing out is a job well done by itself.

The whimsical reflection gives it a spontaneous feel. As you have owned up to your hard work on this one that is a magical thing to recreate.

The bubble creates a clever frame for the main element of your photograph, the heart.

My one suggestion would be using a darker surface so the lower part of the bubble dome is equally colourful and beautiful.

Also the rules of thirds suggested by tennyomelime is a good one. In this case if you had placed your heart slightly off centre to the left, your reflection would provide an additional detail of interest to the right and the two would not have merged.

Altogether, well done and pat yourself on the back for this one.
