I like the long shadows in this shot...helps with the mood. Also, I like how the reflection and shadow inside the ring looks like a dividing cell, also a fitting relationship to the shot.
Nice dramatic lighting, but i don't think you want to advertise divorce as part of selling the jewelry :) sales might not go well. overall great photo GL!
Good composition and good use of shalow DOF. Ring is well lit with no blown highlight. Pleasing color balance. However, the shadow casted by the ring is way to strong I think. Maybe having another diffuse light source would have reduce the shadow.
Funny or sad? Yuo certainly have a good sense of humour. ;-) I don't know about a jewel ad though. LOL. Amusing for a second, but looses its charm rapidly. Good luck!. :-)
LOL, cool shot. Did you intend for the light to be golden yellow and the wb to be this way? Works well, better than a white sheet of paper. The yellowish light goes well with the ring.
In my opinion, no jewelry advertising in the world would link jewelry (a symbol of love) with divorce. It would be bad advertising and would, again in my opinion, depress sales. So from my viewpoint, this is bad advertising at best and fails to meet the challenge at worst. Now to the photo. The ring is beautifully focused and clear which is not so easy. It is well lit and I like the reflections. The blurred text looks like it was done with gausian blur, rather than DOF. It therefore looks a bit artificial. With DOF blur, the letters further away would be blurred more. As it is, all the letters are blurred more or less equally.
Nice title and nice photo. Well done. The glare inside the ring is the only distraction on this photo. I would have tried the lights more so above the ring. Still I like the content.
