This is super, Linda!
I love the conversion with a bit of colour left for the ring == very old-fashioned feeling to it and of course the font adds to that

The f7.1 has led to a good depth of sharpness, if that is a meaningful term! The pp work is very effective here, that ring stands out nicely. This is quality work all round.

Good luck with the stress test!

Hi Linda !


The old ring is wonderful and so is your PP, too, but the modern nails don't fit, I'm afraid. It's looking odd, imho

have a great weekend,

Hi Linda,

Your post processing work is fantastic. I'm a novice with photofiltre right now, but can't wait to gain more experience and do these things. It's really a nice image isolating the beautiful ring. I bet a jeweler would love a photo like this to showcase his/her rings, watches, etc....

Feel better..... treat yourself to a nice dinner somewhere! :D Lisa

Good detail in the shot Linda. Well composed, lovely colour in the ring and well framed. Now if you had just used Corel your data would have been preserved.

Hiya Linda

Hope your feelin ok now girl;-)

Love this shot,superb de sat work and wonderful POV and framing. Did you know that there is an additional line to that saying "and a sixpence in your shoe" in the Uk we used to have a tiny silver coin which was six old pennies and it was customary for the bride to wear one inside her shoe... coindidently it was also customary to hide a sixpence inside a christmas pudding when it was being cooked too. I am sure there were many a broken tooth on Christmas morning in those days lol

TFS and for joining in the theme

kind regards Helen

Nice b&w conversion and good technique to keep the ring saturated. When combined with the simple but effective frame this is a striking picture.
Thanks for sharing
