I actually thought it was a necklace at first until I got a better look... Marvellously taken picture.

wow again lovely work eden! i thought about the necklace just before i read the artist comment, so yeh i definately agree there! love the focus on it, very well taken, and i love the smoothness of the overall look. very lovely in b&w, as this helps to enhance the tones in the water droplets very well. the gradient effect from the top left to the bottom right works brilliantly too.

oki, as usual with my comments i will critique once...well i am finding it hard to find one to be honest!...the only one i can find is the slight part in the boarder, where you have a white line running on the inside of the black...it looks a little sketchey, and could be neatened...now how lamo is that critique eh! well i spose it shows how nice the piece is tho! great work, and i look forward to seeing more.

oh yeh, and that little thing they call a fav...think ill do that too


bada bing bada boom: yay!

I get excited when you leave a comment, because I know it'll be informative.
I appreciate you taking out time to write down what's on your mind (Look, I rhymed). o_O

About the border: I tried to make it appear spiderweb like.
That would explain the scratchiness.
I figured it gave the pic a lil' pizazz.

Thanks for the , man!

This is really beautiful. The clarity is amazing and the focus is spot on. And you are right, spiders and their webs make excellent jewelry! Really very well taken!
