I love how well your picture fits your theme! The focus on the snow is really good, and it is really interesting to look at. Maybe a little more lighting on that little bit of snow in the lower right hand corner.

The flame is nice but I am not sure about the surrounding area.

Too much of the picture plane is dominated by the white and red background. The red clashes with the color of the stones. This would have really benefited from bringing the lens much closer to the subject and perhaps from a lower angle of view to make the earrings look larger or more dramatic. Shooting down on a subject tends to make it look smaller. The color and clarity of foremost stone is almost obliterated by the huge glare. This is a nice subject for the challenge and you clearly attempted to create a sophisticated still-life as is evident in that you took care to set up some sort of lighting and backdrop. Good effort.

Nice idea... there seems to be a bit of a sharpness issue but otherwise not bad... :) 5

the red in the background grabs my attention more than the earrings. The color is a little too strong and it also clashes with the purple color of the stones. Nice detail and focus on the earrings though
