Comment by Love6:
beautiful composition, the rings do two things for me, they identify the females in the image, and do slightly distract me from the overall shapes because suddenly i find myself looking hand to hand to see if every other one is wearing rings or not...? I scored this one at an 8 - (would have done a 9 if there was a border? i think framing this image in would help with my eyes not drifting out of the frame when i'm gazing over it... its very -beautiful- and I really like it a lot - very difficult to get a lot of people to hold hands and stay still under direcdtion, and I respect that you were able to do that- I hope this image does well :)

seems noisy or oversharpened but nice idea.

This is a cool idea. You have a lot of jagged edges though. Nothing really to do with the quality of the photograph more to do with how you prepared it for the challenge, I think.

brilliant idea. good focus. It appears as if there is a high level of noise in your picture taking away some details of the skin

I would have preferred a sharper image.
Great concept.

extremely noisy/pixelated; lighting is flat. a square crop had added impact IMO

Really good idea and layout. I so wish it was clean and noise free. Also looking at it a bit longer I wish that all of the right hands were on top all the way around, that they were all gripping the same way to make the circle flow uniformly. the 2,4 and 6 oclock hands throw off the rhythm some (though arranging bodies I am sure wasnt the easiest).

Great idea and well shot, but I find the grain (added in postprocessing?) really distracting.

conceptually very good, just need better lighting and less noise in the shot.
