This is definitely the best fireworks photo in the challenge.

Boats and Bubbles
by Mike

Comment:
It was hard to get the focus on the bubbles, I'm sure. The main problem with this is that these boats don't make a good background for these bubbles. It's an unusual pairing, and the boats compete for attention even though I can see you've used DOF to isolate your subject matter. Did you have trouble with underexposure? Looks a bit noisy/grainy which detracts from fun shiny bubbles. Next time, try isolating just a few of the bubbles and have the boats as a reflection in them. Your border is also not helping your presentation.

Your concept of lots of bubbles floating around might work better in a different challenge.

Aw, soon enough it will become second nature again. Enjoy the journey!

I'm not getting "Surf Gothic" because I hardly know what that is. Looks like a coffee shop to me. :)

This is a good peek picture -- a real slice of life of what people really do when they think they are unobserved. Someday you should have someone take a picture of you sitting in the booth. :)

This one is crying for more tonal range, and colorful puzzle pieces.
