Hello Gem - that's a fine sharp picture.
But maybe you should try a less overcoming background; a darker red perhaps and without a design? The stitchery is a bit distracting my eyes.
Ring is just overwhelmed by the red, I would have gone for Macro shot on the ring bringing it more into the forefront. Right now the Red Cloth just overwhelms what I would think was the centre piece of the Photo. Just my![]()

Agree with A.L. here - this is far better suited to a macro shot and the red is stealing the show.

You guys are right, the red just drowns out the ring. I really like the colour though. Now that I look back on it, I don't know why I didn't do this as a macro shot....Anyways, thanks for the feedback.![]()
