lovely shot. grain makes it more perfect.

@pLusOne: yes..the grain does add to its effect..thank you.. :)

Sangram from Mumbai, India

i think the jewels should have been more saturated.that would have made the red stand out more. nice effort.

Wonderful portrait, excellent choice of b&w and red. It's really an excellent photo, you deserve to be on the main page of Aminus3 today (and there's also me right after you! =D). Superb!

ConvexClix from Mumbai, India

Red always comes out perfect on black and white shots. Whats that piece of jewellery called btw?

2 Apr 2008 3:15pm

@ConvexClix: darling, it's actually my earring, and i wore it as a maang-tikka :P proxy firang you are!

Angshuman from New Delhi, India

This is a self portrait I presume! :-). Good work with partial desaturation...but saturation of the stones a bit more might have increased the intensity, I feel. But interesting!
