I realize that the front gem is not in focus, I was trying to highlight the broken bits instead of getting a general overall focus.
Is it to yellow? I lit everything yesterday with a yellow light and I think it may have been "too" yellow. as everything came out all goldenny. And yes, the white cloth is textured, hence the diagonals.

If the front jewel was in focus the image would have a greater impact regarding the empty spots (missing jewels). I do like the DOF for this particular subject, nice lay-out.
I think the DOF is to shallow. It also seems to me that the necklace is out of focus and the photo has an overall pinkish hue which I don't like. Nice idea though.
