Lose the border. It detracts from the starkness. Otherwise well done, but the sepia tone rings false in a sense. How is it in straight B/W?

Nice shot, good solid black background. I hope the faded rose doesn't symbolize a faded marriage.

Comment by Pidd:
I gave this an 8 instead of a 10 only because of the placement of the rings. The concept is so beautiful and moving and the colors, lighting, depth and detail are extraordinary, but there is something about the rings themselves that just doesn't work for me. Perhaps if one ring (the lady's?) were placed on the table it would more dramatically emphasize the parting and remove some of the stiffness of the stage. Of course, if you were to do that, you would need to rework it so that you could identify the table surface, otherwise the ring would just be floating out in space...or, hm, come to think of it, maybe that would have its own implied significance? In any event, this is a beautiful photograph and one of my favorites of the challenge. Good luck.
