Easily among the best of the watch pictures. Nice work. The connection of the fob to the watch is not, perhaps, as well-displayed and lit as it ought to be, it's getting lost in the background. The watch itself is beautifully rendered.

Very well done. Is this jewelry?? :) I'm judging watches as jewelry but betting you are getting slammed. 8

Wow! Very well done. One of my favorites thus far. I like the starburst affect. Did you accomplish this with a grid filter? 7

Nice, I think the star-burst effect works well in this situation

Nice composition. I like the way the chain goes off-frame. Lithing could've been slightly better, but sharpness is kept on the watch itself. I wish it could've stayed on with the attachment tho. Background is very nice and very dark. The sparkles are interesting as well, but i'm affraid they were added in photoshop(?!). Nice. 7

Nice clean crisp image. Well done with the lighting and DOF. The starbursts are a nice touch, but you went overboard...should have just kept them to the watch, distracting on the chain and seem unrealistic there. Good luck in the challenge.

Very well captured with attention remaining on the face. Perhaps one too many starburst, but not that distracting. Good composition. Bumping up.

I also like the snake-like position of the chain, really makes the picture what it is ----> (Great)

The stars work nicely on this one. There's a nice balance in the image and the lighting works well for the subject. Well done.

Well composed shot. The lighting control here was very good and really like the added reflection on top of the watch cover. Nicely done!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I'm a huge fan of this entry. I think the lighting and DOF is fantastic. A bit of a crecent shadow on the face of the watch which distracts a bit but not much. 8

very nice photography...8

Very nice. Only problem I see is that the staring effect should not be prevalent on out of focus chain.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/25/2005 02:07:55 AM
Wonderful reflections, wonderful clarity and detail.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/25/2005 12:13:16 AM
I love the star effects on in the right spots too! Great shot on a classic piece of jewelry. If the gold was cleaner on the lid it would've made a 10. I give a 9.
