Greetings from the Critique Club:
Well, searching frantically for something I can take issue with I notice a small, small need for a tiny crop on the upper right. The image is quite wonderful, meets the challenge with originality and with distinction. The use of the blue gel in front gives an unearthly look that balances well with the gold/yellow. The waves in the sand are a nice background for the rounds of the watches. The light painting technique is very successful here, and understated as it should be. A very satisfying submission.

My first ribbon, what a great feeling, thanks everyone for the votes and the great comments.
The way I achieved the ripples in the sand was by first smoothing it all out, then dragging my fingers through it. I stuck the clocks in the sand, grabbed a handful of sand which I poured over the clocks and threw some lightly at the ripples to knock down the peaks. I followed that by touching up the ripples with my fingers. After than I blew on the face of the bottom clock to give the sand a a "windblown" look.

A beautiful presentation! I like the lighting, too. I'll be interested in learning how you accomplished the rippled sand without disturbing it along the way. |

i like the lighting. If the edge of the watches were actually buried, it would have given the illusion of drifting sand better. Very nice photo. |

I love the color manipulation, it really brings out the lines, shadows, and texture in the sand. The best I've seen so far. 10 |
