		| | This shot isn't in focus, and actually looks like it was sharpened too much :-( |

		| | Interesting object for a macro, but it seems to be not quite in focus. Maybe a smaller aperture would have helped because that broadens your DOF. This would also have had a nice side effect. In very small apertures (at least f/8) light sources sometimes become star shaped. That would have fit perfectly to this photo because that would convey the brilliance of the diamond better. -stephan |

		| | Looks like an advertising shot!  I like your choice of subject - just the tiniest bit fuzzy for me, but not taking off points for that. lhall |

		| | Focus is pretty close on this.  Improving that would be my only recommendation.  Good luck - Inspzil |

		| | I tried something like this.  My wife's engagement ring ... .51 carats.  It's nearly impossible to get it to focus properly.  Nice composition.   Jacko. |

		| | Diamonds, my favorite subject! Do you think a polarizing filter would cut out some of the glare and let you see into the stone more? Nice shot. |

		| | Unsharp. Looks really yellow but that could be the jewelry itself |
