WOW, talk about a macro shot!!! Would have been nice if the DOF was a tad deeper though. |

Good presentation and while some detail and tonal values are sacrificed as the eyes sweep down, the overall effect is interesting. Bumping up. |

Great lighting. How could you make it better in my oppinion...hmmm.. put a white board infront of the rings so you can't see the reflections and back up a little so I can see more of the rings. Good luck. |

Nice ad. Nostalgia is a great selling tool. |

I like the saturation of blue in the ring. the clarity is good. maybe the light could have been muffled with a white sheet of paper just to keep the glare off a bit. 7 |

nice, but the ring on the left either needs to be in focus, or more out of focus so that attention is directed to the main ring on the right. |

The lighting is a little harsh for my taste. And the reflection in the gems is what draws my attention. Otherwise not a bad entry.

Aw Man! Where's the 300 ring? ;^) This is a fun photo. Very shallow DOF to have the 299 in focus and not the 298? Too bad you couldn't get a different angle to eliminate the reflection (of the table edge?) visible on the bottom of both stones. Good luck in the challenge. |

I think both rings should be in frame. |

At this magnification, some of the details were lost resulting in a bit of a harsh image.
Perhaps neat image (or similar noise reduction software) could have helped smooth the gold surfaces, yielding a softer image i my opinion. |

Good lighting & sharp focus, would have preferred a whiter background (seems a bit yellowy) But the vibrant blue jewel really draws my eye. Very slight purple fringing on the highlights, but thats no biggy! Nice shot |

Excellent work on the gems, although the gold seems out of focus. |
