    Bob, This came out fantastic! Perfect amount of de-focus. I like the off center placement and that you kept the color tones cooler. It really makes the purples and blues richer.

    This works really well! Gorgeous colors and swirls. I like the off center composition. I wonder about toning down or eliminating the yellowish spots right-center. Very nicely done!

    Very nice abstract, Jim. Like the flowing lines and rich blue & purple color tones.
    I agree, just enough softening with the bit of defocus. Well done!

    Bob, this is really beautifully done! I love the composition, the colors, the focus - actually everything.
