Skull Ring
by pawdrix

Comment:
Nice idea. Sort of creapy with the Rose, but definatly intriging. The frame and composition are very good, but the lighting is a bit off. Too strong on the ring, too soft on the rose. I'm not too keen on the 'set' either, with the brown part of fabric. On an even set, this would've done better. Some water sparkles on the rose trick could've done some good results on this shot. Font is good and not too invasive. Feels like a 'tatoo-shop' picture. 6

I'm not sure i understand the slogan of this shot. Composition is however very intriguing; goes well with the text and item. I'd wish for a better focus on the item, i believe better lighting could've helped in that department. Perharps a colored lighting effect could've helped slightly as well (blue?). Keep at it! 5

I like the idea, unfortunatly, the DOF is awful and the ring is largely blurry and/or out of focus. The Lighting is too strong and washs the ring considerably. With a better sharpening, the reflection on the diamond would've been very nice. The Red colour is very nice and would've done wonders if a better DOF and focus was used. Keep at it! 4

Silver Heart Earrings

Very nice and sharp eyes. The idea of the eyes and earing to be the only 'sharp' parts of the picture very interesting, unfortunatly i do not feel it works very well, as most of the subject of the picture isn't the jewel. A tighter crop of perharps only one side of the face and the earing could've worked as much. Frame is nice and classic, which makes the picture work more. 5

Silver on Black

Wierd suggestion of composition. I feel overwhelmed with information which in an advertisement picture, isn't too good (leave that for the part where there is actual text in a magazine for exemple). Lighting is a little stale, but works with the contrast work. LOts of touchups could've avoid all the little grains and grey spots all around the item. The change in colours of the text is not very appealing either. 5

Composition is good. Touchups are awful, unfortunatly. I can see all the work done in the left ring and on the left side of the picture. Which also brings me to believe there is 'over'paint, which is against the advanced rules. Lighting is good, if only a little overdone, which splashs the items a bit too much (did you use a soft box?). Also the Font used is nice, but the colour is way too strong for the items (using the colour picker tool could've helped in selecting a colour more interesting and closer to the rings). Composition could also be a lot tighter with this shot. 4

Nice colours, unfortunatly very splashed by lighting which is not very good. (Angle and force). The composition is somewhat stale and not very interesting to look at and we don,t really see what those things are for... 4

Give Her Beaded Elegance in Turquoise

Slightly wierd composition here. the DOF could've been better as well, since even tho the portrait is nice, its a bit out of focus in the middle of the face. Colours could be punched some more and the item displayed could use lots more sharpness and contrast. 5

OUTBACK

Very nice Ad! Composition is appealing and strong. I can feel the energy and attitude of the 'trekker' as he moves away. Nice look on his face as well. Lighting is cool, if only a tiny bit too directional. The choice of grey background is a good idea as it gives the watch more power as well. I'd wished for a slightly 'closer' shot since we don't see the watch that much. The writing on the wrist is another great touch, as well as the - Watch - beneath it. Great work! 9

Simply elegant

Interesting shot. Unfortunatly, we don't really see the item. Its probably Elegant, but the hand is not (no offense to the model). Lighting is a bit harsh for something 'that' elegant as well. A tighter crop would've helped i think. 5
