Ooh... a real decision! (and it's naturally framed, to boot) A good idea for a tough challenge, and the unusual point of view is refreshing- you should be proud.. You need some color or dramatic lighting in there for a better score, and more depth of field to emphasize the other earring as the alternate choice.

Good idea, shame the mirror is smudged/marked. Took me a while to see the pearls too.

Very creatively set up shot, I like this. Only problem is that nothing really seems to be in foces, except maybe her shoulder, which isn't a key element of the picture. Nice natural framing.

A very clever idea. More DOF would improove the shot.

It's a little bit busy with the frame and all, but I like the line and flow of the arm, hand and earring very much. Meets challenge well.

I am not considering the titles in this challenge.

Artistic.......5
Technical.....5 image seems a bit out of focus, this maybe a depth of field problem due to not having enough lighting on your subject.
Meets challenge description......5

Average 5

like the idea. a larger version may have shown more detail and the definition of the model is too soft. good luck

i like how you are able to see the two choices. great idea using a mirror to show this. makes the photo interesting, and keeps the eye moving. good muscle tone as well.

So which did she actually choose?

I like this because it shows that a decision is actually being made by the way the earing is held. the frame is nice too.

Nice attempt, i like the idea... it's a little hard to grasp though at first. Good show.

Beautiful soft image. I love that the frame of the mirror also frames the photo. And of course it's very eye catching that the reflection is wearing a different earring than the side of her head visible to the right. Nice example of a decision being made.

Ah hah, I love it! Very different.

Nice storytelling here. If the mirror had been cleaned beforehand, I feel it would have been a plus for the sophisticated nature of the shot.

Great idea and nice execution. You should take advantage of the maximum size limits on entries.
