Image seems a bit washed out...sparkle makes it look like the diamonds are welded together.

I love this, except the focal point is lost.

I found it a bit fuzzy to view

Interesting and dreamy like stones. The big question is the overall effect and it is more an idea that must be tested with the customers or those looking at this as an add. Bumping up on great presentation.

Suspect you were thought to be a cheater in your editing?
I have no idea why either.
This is a nice image, but perhaps a littlon the too soft side. Text/font used is a bit plain and a more feminine/italic style would look a little nicer in my opinion. (6)

Light glitter overwhelms the lovely detail of the facets. Layout works well in its simplicity.

Way too much light and fuzzyness. The ring is not sharp and out of focus. I think the Aperture is to blame here. Text is too present, takes away from the item. Frame is a bit claustrophobic on the item as well. 4

I'm not a fan of this diffused glow thats going on in some parts of the ring. The back bottom part blends right into the ground. I'd like to see a defined, crisp edge. The diamonds seem to be a bit out of focus too. Love the simplicity of the shot though, and I like the title. 6

I like the way you brought out the light of the stone without blowing out the rest of the image. Well done. The only nitpick I have is the burning is a bit obvious. Good luck in the challenge.

focus is a bit soft. The lighting may be a bit blown out (you can't see the bottom-back of the ring).

Everything good here except the diamonds could be clearer.

soft focus was a not a good decision here for the jewelry imo.

Nice close up but the centered composition is a little boring.

Nice shot, it looks a bit too soft for me.

Good idea, but the soft focus loses the charm and sparkle of the diamond.

Great job at making the diamonds sparkle! You did so good!

A great job. palcement is well centered and the text is simple and to the point. A crisper shot of the ring and this could be a finalist.

you are emphasizing the diamond... they should be in focus imo

You have shot it from a nice angle that would have worked for the shot, but it looks like you weren't able to get a sharp shot.

Very nice picture, nice lighting on the diamond, but there are some weird grey shadows around the ring that diminish the impact of the picture.

Great idea but there's a slight lack of focus on the diamonds that would needed in an advert. I like the composition of this shot

I understand how hard it is to take photos of jewels without reflections, but you have actually used the reflections to your advantage here, Good shot
