 my broken wedding ring on my glass desk


Edit after Challenge:

wow I am totally blown away, but I don't quit lol.

This was a last minute shot as my first idea simply didn't work.

I'd just bought myself a new black glass desk for my home office and was determined to use it for an image when I suddenly remembered my old wedding ring that popped open at the joint.

I stood it on the desk and stuck a piece of black card on the wall to kill the hideous glare of the yellow paint (I've just moved house) and there you have it.

Many thanks for all the great comments.

Beautiful blue and gold colors, and the symbolism of the broken ring and reflection is really poignant.

Cool lighting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/27/2009 11:04:51 AM
OOOOO , good one, i like the border (even though i usually dont like colored ones). Great shot, the message is strong and well conveyed by your image, so far its my favourite, giving you a 10
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 05/27/2009 10:20:11 AM
I hate to give 10s in a challenge I am joining. I tried to find a single detail to lower my score in here to 8 or 9, but can't, perfect lighting, like the composition, the contrast is good, not going to be netpicky on the refliction, .. I am still trying to resist .. no .. I don't want to click on it .. ahh .. GOD help me .. 10 :(

Edit after finish voting: This is the only 10 I gave, you should be really proud of this one, a Ribbon it should get. Cheers in advance :)
