JUST AS I IMAGINED IT, WHAT A FANTASTIC PHOTO. I'M NOT DEEPLY RELIGIOUS BUT I REALLY GET THE FEELING OF KNOWING.

I like how the prayer book shows signs of use and age.

Good depiction - a little deeper DOF to get the beads if focus might make this a stronger picture.

Good compostion, my only suggestion would have been a greater DOF so the all of the beads were in focus.

Excellent representational image. Solid contrasting background and well lit. Good luck in the challenge - a ribbon winner in my novice opinion. 10

If you could have taken with a faster shutter speed to prevent the motion blur on the beads then I would have marked it higher. Nice image with black behind the gold and skin tones.

I absolutely love the emphasis on the prayer book and the blurring of the rosary beads. This is amazing!

i would like the cross in focus instead of the book

In my oppinion the out of focus beads destract from the main subjects of the picture. I think the picture would have been better if it had been cropped half way up the loop of beads.

Image could be a little tighter with composition. Work on lighting.

I think is interesting, but is a shame that the chain was not still for the shot. (I know is hard to do .. but a shame nevertheless)
