Title misspelled...but I love the shot. Great concept and presentation.

This would be nice for a glamour photo, but for a jewellery ad, the jewellery really needs to be in focus.

Great looking model but the jewelry should be the main focus. This looks more like an Ad for eyeglasses. If the pieces were in focus this image could have worked for me.

Very nice composition. The look is original and the DOF is nice as well. I'm not sure why you choose not to put the jewels in focus, but it does well in showing the 'size', but not the 'quality' of th eproduct. Model is interesting and very glamourous. One thing i don't like is the right eye with the glasses effect (kind of buggy). Other then that, nice work, just wished i'd see the jewels better. 8

An idea which has just missed coming off,. Is the eye wear the main focus,the OOF bangle and necklace detract from this image. 5

Quite the interesting photo. The jewlery (though not in focus) does seem to be very prevelent (as other things :P ) Love the clarity on the face and choice of crop. I think showing slightly more of the cell phone would have been good so to determine at a glance that is what she was doing. Great model! Bumping up

Very stylish! Your model is great.
My overall impression is that this shot shows off the sunglasses more than the jewelry. I wish the jewelry had been in focus! If this was an ad for the shades I would score it much higher...

great photo, but it isn't selling the jewelry
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2005 02:06:01 AM
hmmm i wonder what is the focus here...
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I treat this more as an artistic rendition and as such it gets good mark. On the advertising side the question would be wether to favor the jewelry or the model or both. As a lead image to an article in a Glamor magazine the image works and I am bumping it with this in mind.

The girl is more in focus then the jewelry. Beautiful shot but does not sell me on the jewelry.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I would have liked to have seen a tighter focus on the jewelery being advertised
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/29/2005 12:04:29 AM
I would like this photo for an ad for sunglasses. Perhaps I'm boring, but I like the subject to be in focus, especially if you're trying to sell me something.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/28/2005 09:21:21 PM
Nice idea. The head is in focus, but none of the jewelry is.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/28/2005 05:01:07 PM
Has a slight green cast to it.

good product shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/28/2005 02:06:19 PM
nice shot, but dof is perhaps too narrow. would work better with the jewelry in sharper focus. but i like the layout a lot, so 8

Nice concept, but the jewelry isn't in focus. Would be ok if you were pushing the glasses.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like the photo but the focus doesn't seem to be on the jewelry.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/27/2005 09:00:08 AM
awesome
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/27/2005 06:00:38 AM
Pretty good, nice lighting and pose and I like this. The main problem though for me is that the jewels are out of the DOF so this doesn´t make me even one bit curious about the jewels, but on the other hand it makes me want to buy the sunglasses (for my wife of course). Also I am torn on the green cast in the image, on one hand I like it but on the other it doesn´t really flatter the model (wich is stunning by the way, don´t tell my wife I said so) Ended up giving it a 6.

Great photo, It's a shame the jewlery is out of focus
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/26/2005 10:03:08 PM
I like the shot, but if you are selling the jewelry and not the girl or the sunglassses, then I think those elements should be the focus of the image.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/26/2005 01:42:51 PM
Interesting photograph, but as a jewelry ad, it has the wrong focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/26/2005 01:12:59 AM
I think for a jewelry ad, the focus should be more in the jewelry and less on the model.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 10:42:50 PM
The jewelry is not in focus., and is it not what we are tring to sell. The model is hot. But the glass is what we are tring to sell.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 09:37:08 PM
Love this photo. I wish it had a little more DOF though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 06:49:39 PM
it is certainly is a beatifully done photograph, but I have been wondering if it's the shades or the jewellery that's been advertised here. My opinion is that it could be either, not that it is a problem, but just a thought.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 05:27:58 PM
nicely taken professional shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 05:22:26 PM
Focal point seems to be directed at her glasses more than anything else, kind of taking away from the Jewellery theme. Composition/layout is good.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 03:50:19 PM
Very glamorous shot. I like the moody torquoise lighting. I think you should have increased the DOF to allow for better focus of what this challenge is about: the jewelry.

i wouldve liked this better if the jewelry were in focus
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 01:13:52 PM
Would have made a stronger point with the jewelry more as the focus of the image. good overall photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 01:04:08 PM
Nice photo but for this challenge, maybe you want to draw attention to the jewellery. Would it be better if it (they), rather than the girl, was (were) in focus?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 12:52:16 PM
Seems more like this girl is advertising sunglasses or lipstick .... Great pose, great lighting but the jewelry is completly out of focus ....
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 12:16:05 PM
You made the girl the subject of focus, should be the jewelery
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 10:45:28 AM
With all those expensive looking diamonds hanging around, it seems to me a bit odd that the sunglasses are the featured item. Nary a diamond on them either. :) Nice picture otherwise.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 09:39:10 AM
I think maybe the sunglasses seem to be the focal point/subject of this picture because they are one of the few things with nice sharp clarity...the jewels are just something in the background...a really nice image though
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 09:27:22 AM
Gutsy move - incorporating a person profile and jewelry in one. In this case the person wins, the jewelry seems to be a minor subject. If anything, this looks like a sunglasses advertisement. Well done for that - but for jewelry it's not quite right. Nice photo however...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 09:09:56 AM
Very nice picture overall. However, eyes are attracted by the women's face since all the jewelry are out of focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 08:58:37 AM
focus seems to be on the sunglasses, not the jewelry
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/25/2005 08:26:36 AM
Is the girl the focus, the eyeglasses or the jewelry? If the jewelry wouled have liked to see it sharper or stand out more. If its the glasses, then awesome, if its the girl, then that is not the focus of the challenge. Overall, a 6

Although I like this, I like to see the jewelry more in focus, not so much her face. As is, a 7.

One of my favs this month. I love the fact that the jewels are not in focus. LOL, I'm sure you'll get some negative comments about that. Great glasses. Nice model. Nice lighting. Maybe too greenish... Nice shot!

Sensational, could be straight out of a magasine.

Focus should be on the jewlery, not the model, imho. 5.
