Alain, I've been thinking about this one more and your crop has grown on me. The higher crop supports the length of the bubble tube while the narrower crop supports the narrower width of the tube. Always good to take time to reflect. John

Thanks for the comments ! I must confess I did not see Bert at first. But now I can't see anything else anymore :0
John : I did experiment with other crops, but this came out as most pleasing, for me that is...

Good colours and idea Alain, but the composition/cropping feels a bit forced to me for the sake of getting the subject off-centre without it feeling like it adds anything useful. I think if you cropped at the left and bottom edges of the circle and included a bit more of the image at the right in particular, perhaps to the same point of the outer circel as at the top, it may appear less forced to me, but I wouldn't know for sure without trying it. I also see Bert and he's not looking a bit grumply; perhaps he's seeing red. ;^)

I too like the bold colors. I also like the cropping you have chosen here.

It looks like Bert(of Sesame St. Bert & Ernie) inside of somekind of porthole aquarium.
