I didn't have the time to leave a Critique - but your work was so nice I simply had to stop and to do it.

Let me start with the vision. The red heart is the main focus of the picture: the eyes fall upon it, and the white and grey of the notebook create a stark contrast. The soap bubble with their circolar shape soften up the linear edges of the shot, and with their colours add almost a magic feeling. I put a 5 to the Vision.
I couldn't give to you a full 5 to the Originality, instead, because this is a theme I saw often all around on DA and generally in modern shots. Although, the way your title blends with the theme is interesting and nice. Therefore, I put here a 4,5.
The technique. The way the ground comes in focus around the notebook, while fading just around it, helps the watcher's eyes to fall just upon the right parts. There's a nice balance between colours and greys, the soap bubble adding much needed light to a soft shot. All in all, you were able to take a great composition, to put in the right light and to take a marvellous shot. I couldn't give to you less than a full 5 to the Technique.
About the impact, the only reason why I didn't put a 5 here, too, is the small dimensions of the shot. A bigger photo would have had more impact on the watcher - and I would have liked to study the details in a larger photo. A 4,5 here, too.

All in all, my compliments. You took a lovely composition based upon details; added a gentle touch with the circular shapes of the soap bubbles to the linear notebook and to the fading street; played very nicely with colours an light. Well-balanced and interesting.

Excuse me, please, for my errors; I'm not an English speaker.
