This looks like it was submitted just to have something entered. I don't want to appear 'age-ist' but really, I just can't imagine ever seeing this in a fashion magazine, or even a fashion spread in AARP's magazine. The style content just isn't there for one thing. As a sociological study or an unusual portrait of a loved one it's okay.
This isn't exactly an ad selling photo for diamonds, but it is one of my top picks. Reason being the title and photo work very well together. The detail in the hands works well, and the diamond never changes as we do. I like the overall composition and concept of this a lot. Nicely thought out and nicely done. Not the best in technicals, but still enough for me to be pleased.
grosses me out a first glance (looks like a dead hand or paper bag)...absolutely love it at second glace (all natural vs. glamourous)...grosses me out again at third glance...absolutely love it again at fourth glance...let's stop there
