Critique Club:
It seems a bit to busy and I think the focus is kinda strange. Not sure if it is the focus or the camera moved when you took it. Taking shots like this it is good to lower your iso speed down to 100. I would focused maby on one of the jewelry. And I'm not sure about the background if it is part of the jewlery or not. And I would like to see a bit more space at the top of the picture. Bothers me that it cropes the jewelry.

Good luck in future challanges.

for me the reflections on the stones and settings gives the impression of being slightly out of focus...

Needs better focus/sharpness and is a bit too flat.

I'm not sure what kind of jewelry this photo is supposed to advertise. Gems are out of focus too.

Just a bit cluttered

Very pretty gems. Nice colors and composition. The only thing I see wrong is the focus is a bit off. Good luck!

As an advertisement, this is pretty busy. My eyes are drawn all over the shot.
Lighting and reflections are a bit too harsh (easy to do) and image seems cropped too tight on the top, resulting in some of the jewelry being cut off. (5)

Odd placement, not very inspiring. Maybe shot at an angle would have been better.

Could perhaps benefit from pulling out a bit, its hard to make out what this is.

I am sorry, I really do not like this. It almost looks like cheap jewelry stuck in sand. The definition of the stones is lost. I believe I would have tried one piece with a different background.

Interesting, but a little busy for my taste.

Wow...filled the frame with this one. This is a busy picture. I think perhaps too busy. Eliminate two pieces and see how it looks... Lighting may be a bit harsh also. These are interesting pieces of jewelry. Good luck.

Nice colours, unfortunatly very splashed by lighting which is not very good. (Angle and force). The composition is somewhat stale and not very interesting to look at and we don,t really see what those things are for... 4

Nice colours, though because of being so closeup to the subject it's a bit difficult to know what is being advertised.
