Great concept, but really good lighting would have made this a superb shot. Definitely more light on the subject, and enough light to make the background pure white, like you did on your "You Want A Prince..." shots.

Really powerful image. I like the contrasting textures. I think a border would top it off.

The image is a little soft - nice idea though ^^

An interesting title - which is the kiss of death - the engagement or the chocolate kiss - or both? Good macro - nice DoF. More directional lighting would have added a lot more impact.

Great idea. Lighting could have been stronger. Maybe select a smoother kiss??

Focus is a tad soft on the details of the ring. Good macro of the kiss. :o)

not sure about the title.

Great idea & composition! Colors are just a tad flat and the ring/kiss could be a little sharper. Good shot!

Could be alittle more in focus. Seems alittle blurry to me.

Good idea, but needs more sparkle.

Hmmm... are you one of those folks who think "happily married" is an oxymoron?
Nice shot, nicely lit. Seems a little out of focus, however.

...about the title.... only if he is an idiot and in that case don't accept the kiss! Of course, if you are male pawn the ring and eat the chocolate you are not ready for marriage with that way of thinking! :) I think you did a good job on this one. The ring has no reflections that distract. The only thing I wonder is if you could have had a light shine just on the diamond to make it sparkle a bit.

Great concept and composition. The ice begs for sharper focus though.
