Jewelry with a purpose
by DogAngel

Comment:
I disagree with some who say that a watch is not jewellery, however I think this misses the mark a bit for advertising as it doesn't show the watch in sufficient detail to make a lifestyle statement

Nice control of reflections but just a little soft on the focus

Give Her Beaded Elegance in Turquoise
by joyinlight

Comment:
the lighting is very flat and forward which leaves the texture of the earring (which could have been very good) rather flat as well. Showing the earring lit by the sun from behind (to create a halo), with some fill flash or reflective fill (a piece of white poster board works surprizingly well) coould have produced a memorable shot.

Fijian Black Pearls

sorry but i find the bright hotspots on each pearl too distractng. Try using more diffused light and some fill in reflection. The composition it very nice.....exposure and contrast a little less satisfying, especially for print

Pearls are imortal

Comment:
the styrofoam/polystyreme peanuts seem a little incongruous in this context and the bowl is rather centered which to me at least breaks the natural flow of the pearls. A lower POV might have rendered some interesting reflections in the bowl and you would have had a shot with an original message. For me I don't think this quite achieves the effect you are looking for in an ad.

I'm afraid that the background and text detract from the ring in this for my taste at least
