there's a lot of potential drama here, that unfortunately i feel was missed by the image. a shift in lighting or a shallower dof, throwing more of the background into a greater blur would have been very effective.

Amazing opportunity. I like the lighting and the DOF - spot on for seeing what is most important in this shot.

I just hit your profile's site because I wanted to thank you for the encouraging words on my minimalism entry, and I have to agree with messerschmitt's comment "its been a while since a photo knocked me out of my shoes, this one just did" - I have to echo that sentiment! WOW, what a great shot!

Well anyway, thanks again for the kind words and I look forward to more of your work!

Too bad, I kinda wanted some colours. Good shot otherwise.

The blue text is really hard to read against the orange background. Otherwise, I really like this shot.

Beautifully done...exaggerated reds really set off the main image of the diamond.
