I think the lighting here is too harsh, as it casts some odd shadows and makes many hot spots of the jewelry. Granted, it also casts some interesting reflections on your model's skin. |

cutting themodel's head off is not usually a good plan....and I'm afraid the shadow reduces the impact a lot. Focus is good |

Something "bothers" me about the crop/composition; maybe crop more off the top? |

I felt I would have rather seen more of the bigger stones in more detail, but thats just me. |

Great idea and composition, but the lighting isn't working for something to be in a print ad. Too much shadow from the left, and the stones are turned on the left side too. The best thing about this shot is the lovely skin tones! |

I think you should have had a second light from the right side. And seeing so much of the neck is unecessary. |

Excellent skin tones and reflections |

I'm not sure about the reflection on the skin? and perhaps a bit of cleaning up on the stretch lines would add more effect. 6 |

Lighting is very interesting, as it gives good sparkly reflection on the skin. Unfortunatly the composition is not very interesting; no features, no movement, could've been a plastic doll. Also the composition is not even, which bugs my eyes some (two black spots on each sides). 5 |

I don't know what to say; I think it's uninteresting that you croped the head of your model. It's not very esthetic to chop someone's head. If you only wanted to photograph the neckless, you would have benn better putting it on a flat surface. |

Nice piece of jewelry. How did you get the reflective sparkle off of natural skin? That's very cool. IMO this would have worked a little better if it had been cropped to exclude most of the neck. |

Nice presentation idea, but the shadow is distracting. |

Nice shot of the necklace but the angle looks a bit odd. I think it might be better taken straight on as opposed to from below. |

Lighting a bit harsh but jewelry looks good. |

I'm not sure if the composition is too centered or not, and honestly don't know what to suggest one way or another. Detail is great, but the reflections on the skin kinda' distract. Multiple (and soft) light sources would have helped here. A simple, white border may have been a litle more effective too. (7) |

reflections on skin are a little disconcerting (makes skin look fake)... I think I might have edited those out. |

Very well done. I like the way the diamonds sparle on her skin. |

the reflection on the skin is quite interesting, how did you acheive that? |

great lighting. Nice shine on the gems. I'd have perhaps cropped the top just slightly lower, 1/3 inch more or so, to really put the focus on the necklace. |

Very nice. Except cannot tell what gems are in the middle. |

the angle makes the neck look too big and flat in the front.. |
