This is my Grandparent's Marriage Certificate and rings. They were married June 16, 1936 and are now resting together for all of eternity. Just a subtle reminder it does happen, some couples have been fortunate enough to last forever.

I like this photo overall. The certificate in the back and the rings look good and I like the texture of the paper a well.
I have to agree with some of the other comments however about the photo being kind of flat. Its not necessarily a bad thing but I think if you had adjusted the angle a bit down and to the left, it may have given more depth to the certificate.
The cropping is just a bit tight for my taste. I would like to see a bit more space next to the M on the left. Not centering matrimony but just giving a bit more room for it.
As an after thought perhaps you could show the color of the rings against the cert. Maybe getting a gleem or something.
I do like the photo and if you decide to shoot this again trying some different angles and lighting, I would like to see what you come up with, so PM if you do.
great idea! cropping is a little tight to the left for my taste and the shadows in the rings are a bit distracting...maybe one ring just laying over the other? good focus
Unique take on this contest. You made a personal link for almost anyone that views this image (as most people have been married and, thus, have a marriage certificate. The focus around the top left corner seems a little mushy to me but that could just be the initial M and the way it was printed.
