PURE PEARLS

This is a nice capture. Couple of questions: Why does the glass seem to be leaning left? What are the two lines under the glass that look like an 'X'? The jewelry came out well lit and in focus. Overall, nice job. Good luck.

Now that's clever. I like the shadow especially with the light reflection on it. Nice crisp image, good composition. Great job - good luck!

I love the image, the text is ok (a bit too large and bold). I like the soft focus on the jewelry and the pieces are arranged very well. Great job on the lighting and composition. This IS an advertisement. Good job and good luck!

Wow, now that's bright and colorful! I like the colored text - different from the rest. The ring certainly fills the frame, which is good. The diamond itself is almost TOO colorful - where's that clear sparkle? Overall, good job. Good luck.

Thanks for the reminder. How many commenters will say that I wonder? ;^) As for the image, somethings not working for me - looking for some pop, sparkle, pizzaz (sp?). Everything seems kind of muted. Hard to explain...it's almost like the photo is more about the hand than the jewelry? Sorry I can't pinpoint it more for you. Good luck.

denim & diamonds

Good details in this image, although finding diamonds is a bit hard to do (small in relation to the photo). Lighting, detail, contrast...all are in good shape. Negative for me is the text is a bit overpowering (too large). Good luck.

My ring

Comment:
It's ok. Not sure I get the choice of props. Is the ring supposed to be a napkin ring or is it a piece of jewelry? The white diagonal line in the background it throwing me off - seems distracting. Good focus and you did a good job of keeping unwanted reflections out of the glass as far as I can tell. Good luck.

Tastefully done. Nice lighting, good composition, and good use of props in the background. Good luck.

A little something extra
by buzzmom

Comment:
It looks like you were trying to imitate a flower with the jewelry on the artificial flower. Why not use a real flower? That would have been pretty cool. The "flower" in this case is distracting because of the cloth pattern. The lighting to the left is a bit hot, and you have some lens flare on the upper right of the flower it looks like. Neat concept. Good luck.

Pearl

Ok, nice shot. The shadows of the background used are a bit distracting. It would be nice if there was one major reflection on the top of the pearl. The lighting and focus on the gold is good. For this challenge you may take a minor hit for not having any text, especially with all the negative space available. I know, text was not required for this challenge, but I think most voters are going to be looking for some with a photo such as yours. Overall, good job. Good luck.
