Very nice composition, and good for the challenge. I don't like the color, it's too unnatural somehow. Otherwise a fine pic and in my top 10 this week.

Nice composition, a bit tto much soft focus and too little contrast probably on purpose to enhance the softness, but it sticks out in that way. Would have been neat to get tsome sparkle on the ring as a contrast against the softness.

I Like the romantic and soft feel to this image but find the lighting to be objectionable...I think you've lost too much detail in the skin tones. Also, the composition could be improved by not such a tight crop where you're cutting off fingers.

Good idea. Nice soft focus. Maybe a bit too much, needs a bit more sparkle on the diamonds.

It seems to me like the diamonds shouldn't be so masked underneath the soft focus - there should be some sparkle ;)
