Very well composed picture, but, as I'm sure you know, the "stone" wasn't a diamond ring!

I get the idea that the focus is on the beautiful stone.. :) but the blur is a little overdone.. making the whole photo looks blur and off focused.. might want to adjust the angle of focus.. :) 5 for me.

The blur of the faces is a bit much for me, but I like the idea and framing

It's been a long time since I've seen the movie, but weren't they chasing after some big green rock? I like the sharpness of the ring and the lose of DOF beyond it.

Not even close might be good for a diamond commercial but no where in the movie is this at all . Also If your objective is to focus on the diamond this phot0 would have been better with some lighting on the diamond and a sharper focus .thanks

Wasn't that an Indiana Jones movie? If there's another "Romancing The Stone" out there my apologies, but I think it's the first one that will come to mind for the majority of voters. Creative use of blur is nice here. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

The stone in "Romancing the Stone" was a large emerald, not a diamond.

My problem with this shot is that it seems a bit snapshoty that's just twisted to make it into the challenge. Interesting point of view as a photo, though.

Very nice image with wonderful DOF to highlight the diamond ring, but this image does not represent any scene in the movie that I'm aware of. 4

Was this scene in the movie?

Hmm. Well. Except the stone wasn't an engagement ring, and it wasn't romance in that sense. Sorry, can't give full credit here.
