I was just looking at this old ring of mine and thinking how its still beautiful eventhough its battered. I admit some editing had happened but I felt it needed to be more a showing of the colourful beauty yet dark destruction.

Hi there :)

So this is an interesting shot- you have a wonderfully defined focal point, the positioning is great.... but the focus is a bit off. I think that if this was properly focused, you'd have an excellent picture. Also, the editing is a little overdone- you don't have your pixels to stretch out and take over the picture, because they become distracting and look like they want to eat you. It looks like these ones appeared because of over-saturation. To make it look dark and everything, you might try some play with the contrast, shadows, and if you really want, some grain. If you want to start over, your editing program should have a button named something like "Revert". It really is up to you though, of course, because it's your picture. Nice job though! Again, the shot has some really good technicalities. :)

It looks creepy and evil on the first look.... I couldn't first realize what it was but after i read i could understand...
A good photograph but overly edited and it has become a little hazy which gives a drawback to the picture...
All in all its a good evil picture.... :)
Keep up the good work... :D

It's a little blurry, but that could work to your advantage as an old fashioned. Oh, wait, you did that on purpose.

At first look, it looks like an amatuer photo of nothing in particular with a bad camera, but when ou think about it, you see the meaning behind it. I like how the beautiful ring is so close to falling, whih is a metaphor for beauty dissapearing.

Hey!
I think it is really cool how you think of things in such a creative way, how you saw such great beauty in ring.
Happy New Year!

Hey lily, this photo was taken with your phone I take it? ;D Any how, the blurryness works to your advanage and adds the effect of the darkness, cause the darkness is never clear... but it's a beautiful photo at that it is artistic and makes me want to just jump and save that ring from the darkness... all this talk about darkness and rings... anyone else getting the thought of lord of the rings feel about this reveiw? XD Any way, I'd say a way to improve it would be to add some glares to the ring and such like some sparkly ness.... xD but I know you are jsut using your phone so you cant...

BTW sorry for the spelling and grammar... IN CLASS.... BAD KEYBORD... no spellcheck.
