This doesn't quite work for me because the blue seems to be the wrong shade - doesn't compliment the red.

I like the colours and positioning of the 'liquid' in the frame but would like to have seen the 'droplet' a little sharper :o)

First impression: The red is fuzzy. Nice tension of between the position of the pearl and the wave of red. The colors are more exciting than calm.
Even though the subject(pearl) is in focus, the lack of focus on the long line between the red and blue will cause a lot of people to say this isn't in focus and score accordingly.
