Last a Lifetime

The jewelry seems to be a second point in this photo - the hands are overpowering what you intended to be the primary object. JMO. Nice ring...the reflections on the front of it make it look like there is something under the ring. If the hand were positioned down just a smidgen more it may have helped. Always easy to be the armchair quaterback I know. Good luck in the challenge.

Silver Heart Earrings

The first thing to jump out at me in this photo is the models eyes. If this was a portraint that would be good. The earring in this is not a focal point. JMO. She's very pretty - how did it look in color? Good luck in the challenge.

Natural pearls

Nice pearls! I like your color choice for the background, it's different and it works. The lighting is ok, I would like to see it toned down just a little. Did you try wetting the wood to darken it...that might have been interesting. Well done overall.

That text is tricky isn't it? ;^) Very good capture on the watch. Nice lighting and focus. I wonder how this would have looked using a black background? Good luck in the challenge.

Can't decide if I like the reflection or not....would have been a good place for some text (in the reflection area). Otherwise, I like the photo. Clean and crisp - well lit. Good luck in the challenge.

Took me a minute, but now I get it...it's a knife blade? Interesting ring. Wish I could see more of the details. Good luck in the challenge.

Ah, yes...chocolate! This is fun. Great detail and clarity. Some reflections on the outside of the rings I'm curious about, but can't define. I think those are going to drop this down a couple notches, but should still reach top 20. Good job.

Cute and colorful. Nice use of lighting and a fun composition. Almost could use a lttle bit more water on the bowl. Should do well. Good luck.

Yes, sex sells and you grabbed my attention with the well exposed lady (pun on words intentional). Very good lighting and details. The jewelry pieces look interesting but can't see enough of them to appreciate...
