This is a lovely shot, but what I noticed immediately is that I have the same piece! It had belonged to my grandmother, then my mother, now me. Small world. The amethysts in the background look beautiful.

I really like the set-up for this. Only thing I'd change is get rid of the shadow under the jewel.

I like the concept, but it took me a minute to see the amethyst ring.

Nice work here. Lighting is a bit dull, but not to bad. Good luck.

I find myself more drawn to the amethyst ring than the pendant. i wish it were more prominent in this picture.

I like the amethyst, it works well with this photo

Seems to be 2 focal points in this shot - the light colored broach in the foreground, and the purple ring. The two I think could have been used together, but without another item to compete such as the quartz/stone they are resting on. Specs in background in a member's challenge could have easily been cloned out, but something to pay attention to when shooting (I never seem them either until it's on my monitor) (5)

Cool idea. Matchs pretty well with the rock. Lighting is somewhat dull and could've used some HUmphs. Lots of little grainny spots and dirts in the pic, which could've been avoided with some spot editing. That really kills the effect. Also a Frame of some kind (black and purple?) would do well here. 5

I wisht here was a little more light on the purple crystals to see more detail. Also the focus seems a little soft on the white jewelry. Nice background.

background a little muddy. Could do with either brightening or darkening.

Very nice lighting on the gems and I really like the way the colour of the stone is reflected in the crystal.

Great shot, very crisp but I don't get that this is an ad for jewelry, Maybe a rock and mineral show.

Lovely shot. I like the square item in front. The ring seems to blend into the quartz a bit.

the use of the amythest rock is beautiful to compliment the necklace...my only concern is the lack of contast between the lalic pendant and rhe backround

This is perfect! The purple crystals for some reason really do give the whole ad a vintage feel to it. Excellent job.

I really like the composition, but the amethyst ring is nearly lost in the beautiful piece of raw stone.

Great jewelry. The ring at the top-left almost gets lost in the picture, though. It took me a few moments before I saw it.
