There are so many things I like about this picture! Kudos, Cynthiana!

I like the off center, non-symmetrical framing, the great bokeh (that is despite the use of f/6.3, a rather small aperture, no less!), and the sophistication of using a -1/3 exposure compensation. Obviously, Ms. Kenison knows her A100 very well! Excellent, calming capture.

Nice composition and great DOF control. Wish I could convince myself to do more B&W.

Nice composition - I love the clarity of the bubbles and the narrow DOF!
