Swiss Army Watches
by TommyMoe21

Comment:
One of a kind in this challenge.
The overall non-dead center composition is good, though the text is taking away from it inmy opinion. Perhaps not having the "Swiss Army + Watches" in it would have been better, as this shot makes me think belt buckle, as there is no watch visible. (5)

Something Old...Something New...

Unusual layout and theme for this challenge, with good detail & clarity.
The background, though unique in the way it compliments the shot, it is fighting for main focal point and actually is making some of the lower jewelry hide. (5)

Interseting theme and composition.
Detail is good, but the text size here is killing this shot in my opinion.
First impression and focal point goes to the text, taking away from the jewelry. (5)

Nice colors. Shadow her is a major distractioninmy opinion.
The overall size of the image is on the smaller size at 432x213 pixels. The file size is also very small (27K), which will hurt it's overall quality.
We are allowed 640 pixels on the longest side, and up to 150K. Using as much of the 150K as possible will only help to not compress the image. If you need help in understanding or making these happen, please don't hesitate to PM me and I can give you some pointers. (5)

Very interesting piece of jewelry, and am sure it is sentimental.
I have a hard time seeing this in a commercial advertisement, as it is very busy, and my eyes are drawn all over the frame trying to find a focal point to settle on. (5)

Breakfast at Tiffany's

Comment:
Overall a good theme and choice for composition lay-out.
In my opinion, the extreme light / dark is kind of hard on the eyes, and the light blue / turquoise clashes in this shot. (6)

Interseting background and choice of it's angles in this shot.
Strong light & dark contrasts work well.
In my opinion, the jewelry is a little too out of focus. (6)

I have seen ads that look simialr to this and you did a nice job composing this shot and lighting it. In my opinion, the watch is too far to the right and is easily lost. (6)

Nicely done!
The choice of lighting and the glow it created around the ring work well.
Detail & clarity are good, and the angle the ring was placed at works well. (7)

Thought behind this was good. A rose & engagement ring - classics together.
Overalll the lighting is a bit harsh and the shadow(s) are too strong / distracting.
Effective text/font used. (6)
