this photo really captures the heartache of how it would be to see such a thing.. and great execution.

Great photo, even though it gives me the chills looking at it (recently engaged)... I agree with rayg544 though. It has a lot of emotion and is very well done.

You have achieved what I consider to be the toughest thing to do in photography. You have made your shot emotional. So heart breaking! This is a talent you should be very proud of!! Fantastic shot - how you didn't win a ribbon for this one is beyond me. Beautiful work!

Out of all the wedding ring images, this is the best one. I love that you can't make out exactly what the letter says, very poignant. Nice tone, good light. Keep em comin'!
