Nice shot!
I really do like this and I like the tone mapping from photomatrix! I have been using it a lot and have discovered it only works with some but you can't really tell until you try.
Congratulations for winning this contest!

Beautiful shot! Love the texture and the coloration. Great clarity and lighting. Great detail on the stones and the bell. Really unique and great shot.

Really like the soft colors of the tarnished coppers and iron. The pitting on the metal gives it character and age. Nice lighting. Not sure what the background is, but it sets the bell off nicely. I like the way you cropped the pic, too.

Ding Dong Ring that bell! Holy light, rust and green! The angle, framing, clarity, lighting and tonemapping edit are Beautifulous. Love the light shadow inside the bell.
Great camera techs and fine edit!
It magically glows! ;)

Comment from Lethal005


yes i can see the tones
that would still dong away i reckon
would be interesting to see what this looks like with added saturation, really make that rust look golden brown
the blues are fascinating too
really looks old
well done

Nice contrast of the light & the shadows. Nice depth, excellent texture & colour. You've framed it perfectly. Thank you for sharing.

Yes it does have a nice patina. Interesting work of photo and the bell is artistic.

Well done, nice work. A darker back ground might be a good pop of the patina.
