Prettu earrings. I don't think the composition does them justice - it seems haphazard. I also notice what looks like noise in the background. I had this problem when I did long exposures. I cleaned up the image in Photoshop with the noise filter for dust and scratch which is legal. I later found out that my camera has a "long exposure noise filter" as a custom setting and that also clears it up. You might check on one of these two methods.

Nice clarity, good color, good background, lighting seems fine.
One earring seems opened up a bit and the other is tightly closed, could you not have fixed this? And what is that little white spot just below the earring on the black background? You've also lost the lighting on the gold siding on the right side of the earring on the Right Earring. Nice photo, but you have to watch out for these points in future. Don't take me as being negative, just trying to help out.
Silver Fox.

It's too bad about the hot pixels - a very nice 'symmetrical' macro.
