1st Place: Patrick Horn from Baden-württemberg, GermanyJudges Comments
Nice and clean and simple and has a very good view of what the rings looked like. The lines of the palm frond hold you right on the rings.

Simply beautiful - no gimmicks - just great color, focus, composition.

3rd Place: Brian Bistodeau from Montana, United StatesJudges Comments
Very good composition. The rings really look "natural" here instead of just placed on and object. Nice job.

Beautifully done and is relatively clean. I'm not sure if that's a cliché (rings on the stamens), but I thought it was pretty nice.

A traditional but nicely executed way of displaying the rings. The control of depth of field, composition and tender way in which the fingers interlock all work to create a tender mood.

The rings in this photo were used nicely with the prop and had a complimentary feel to it.

I really like this image a lot. The composition is excellent and the image is very graphic. I love all the negative white space on the left side which draws the eye to the subject.
