Opals afire

The jewelery is well represented here, but the background (quartz/geode) seems to be fighting for attention.

Nicely put together shot here.
Perhaps a slightly tighter crop off the top (top 1/4 of shot) may have worked a little better.
Good submission regardless.

The ring is well shown here, but the background seems to be taking center stage trying to figure out what it is.

Simply elegant

Nice composition and take on this challenge.
I would suggest a slightly different crop to have less of the wrist showing here, placing the single focal point on the hand/jeans.
Good shot regardless.

Interesting composition.
Top of frame/image is a bit on the dark side, as is the side of the egg/rock. Dual light sources would have been a big help here.
Text/font used is way too dark and almost the whole word American gets kinda' lost.
Perhaps a black horizonatl border across the top with a less bold white text in it may mave looked better in this case.

Pearls are imortal

The spelling error in the title is no biggie and to me isn't part of my vote here.
The shot is decently laid-out with a good control of the lighting.
Disregarding the title spelling for a moment, there is a clash in the text vs. image as the styrofoam packing "stuff" doesn't say immortal (well maybe if the fact it doesn't decompose) and think a different material could have been chosen.
Sill a good shot regardless.

Very clear, simple & uncluttered submission.
Nice job on the lighting here. Only suggestion would be a different font for the main title, such as one that looks similar to the watch face. Good shot regardless.

Crop / framing is at odds here with the background showing above and below the wood.
Perhaps a different crop woud have helped this, either cropping off some of the bottom or the top, so the eye doesn't get pulled in two different directions in my opinion.

Beauty Jewel...

A lot of potential regarding the quality of the lighting used and the subject material, but the ring seems a bit too low in the frame and the upper text is way too overpowering.

This one doesn't work for me in this challenge.
Way too busy, robust in color and without a central focal point.
Text/font isn't a great choice here. Still met the challenge though (5)
