Anybody else hear an angelic chorus singing "hallelujah" when looking at this image, or is it just me?

Arms vertical, feet behind CoM and pushing the floor back, hips extended and pushed forward, chest rising towards the ceiling, full extension through knees and toes.

Textbook perfect takeoff.

Beam deductions

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to get some help understanding my deductions on beam. I’ve been watching my videos back, but I’m having trouble figuring out exactly where the judges are taking the most off. If anyone is willing to take a look and give me some feedback, I’d really appreciate it. I’m especially curious about execution deductions, rhythm/connection issues, and anything in my acro or dance that might be costing me. The judge started me at a 10 for this routine, and I got a 9.1
