Well done, my favorite jewelry shot by far. I enjoy the soft focus and the glint. Good luck!

Indeed. The cost of that lens could pay for an entire semester: tuition, food, rent. Though I hope someday I'll have big lens like that too.

Anyways, very well executed shot, good framing and nice colors.

There seems to be a bit of a yellowish cast overall in the picture. I like the framing and positioning of the subject, that is pleasing to the eye, though it may have been stronger if the top wasn't cropped. Lighting seems a bit harsh. Good DOF and focus. Good luck!

What a lovely shot! The exposure is wonderful and everything about the shot seems technically sound. Love the hot air balloon. Good luck!

Ooo, nice point of view and excellent use of colors and light. I would have liked to have seen one more circle to frame the entire picture because the empty black on the left seems to distract the eye. Nicely done. Good luck!

I like the idea. I would like to see more of the subject as the bottom is cropped off a bit as well as the right side being a little tight. The lighting seems a bit harsh and a tad overexposed washing out some detail on the top. I think another thing that seems to distract the eye is the blade on the lower left and lower right. I think you're on the right track for the detail overall though and good use of DOF. Good luck!

I like this shot and the use of black and white. I would have liked to see more of the reptile's head more head on. I also would have cropped a little bit more off the right as the eye seems to wander to the right a bit. The shot is technically sound, good DOF and focus. Good luck!

Beautiful picture, I love the colors with the blues and yellows. Very bright and vivid. I especially like the sunlight between the two trees. I would have probably zoomed in a little more on the sunlight as that seems to be the main focus, I think that would have made it a little stronger. I think that subject is a little stretch for inside-out.
