Oh, my. And this oyster strung them for you too! An amusing take on the Challenge. Good one.

Very nice picture. It illustrates serendipity well, you might expect to find one pearl but not a whole necklace. The color of the background and angle of the shot really work well with this subject.

Great concept! Set up well so the strand of pearls seems more like individual pearls--a mouthful of pearly whites, as it may be. I don't care for your choice of background, perhaps something less sterile. Also, a secondary light source might take some of the harshness out of the shadows--it just feels a bit too unnatural overall.
