Great image! I like how you were able to evoke the feeling of a telescopic photo
I love that this picture was taken from the top down. It definitely gives the impression of looking out at the stars. I wonder if adding more/less glitter might enhance or detract from your image.
In my opinion this is one of the coolest images I’ve seen this semester, it resembles a galaxy and encapsulates a lot of the physics that make up a black hole on a small scale. How cool!
I love your choice of color and how you completely filled the frame with the flow. It allows the shadows to stand out very nicely.
Mesmerizing! This picture can draw you in.
The vortex created with the sparkles is beautiful. I wonder how changing the light would affect the image. The contrast of the dark with the pink is striking, I’m just curious how a lighter environment would change the image. Great shot
Very pretty photo of a spiral effect, I love the galactic look of it.
