I like the idea ok, but the final product doesn't really grab me.

Nice looking stones. The light looks nice to me but you did the same mistake I did with my photo. Focus way too soft. But I still like it so 9 from me.

aren't these a type of currency???

instead of just scattering them randomly, it might have been kind of cool to form a dollar sign with the gems. Just an idea though... I like the plain black background.

A closer close-up of fewer stones would have had more impact than this wider shot. A closer composition could also have better highlighted the beautiful colours of these stones or beads.

Suits the challenge. Nice colors and composition. I would have preferred a higher exposure to give more sparkle to the stones, just enough to prevent overblown highlights.

I think this could have been emphasized more with a border.
