Great Shot, this was one of my top votes.
I think that you needed to balance the bokeh at the top with a couple below the jewelry,but great colours and well done.
One of the few that really met the challenge I believe.

Really nice use of bokeh to bejewel the background...

Terrific idea. I think it needs some colour contrast somewhere, or maybe another boldly structured element in the composition. Right now it's too close to 'just another' piece of jewellery on velvet. One to work on?

Very nice. Almost hypnotizing.

Brillient shot! You know how to use the background to emphasise the subject. my comment is just the half bottom is too dark campares to the bright top part.

I really like this, and it actually fits the challenge which is cool.

Fantastic shot, and out of the 300 I've seen so far it fits the theme best. I'd be very surprised if it doesn't ribbon. Beautiful bokeh, and unlike the majority of shots that just have a smooth OOF area, this has (to me) real bokeh, the interesting points of light, which compliment the colour and shape of the subject.

Nice shot, a little less focus for the bokeh would have worked better for me.

Now this is beautiful.

Now this really is nice, and so suits the "Bokeh" challenge...

Lovely swirl in the bokeh.

good capture of the essence of "bokeh" - I am intrigued by the background. The crystal itself wouldn't be as interesting without the uncertainty of the background.

very nice. I like the way the bokeh resembles the milky way.

Meets challenge very well: "... take a photograph whose subject is enhanced by the bokeh of the background."
