Little gift for my girl

Hey folks,

I made a pair of earring for my girlfriend. Thought I'd make a nice shot of it, since I had been boring myself to death at home waiting for school to call.

Hope you like it, it is only my second attempt in a "studio" set-up*
Earings are made from a pure silver byzantine boxchain and a couple of hematite balls with a diameter of 4 mm.

All the best,

Tom B

Jewelry photography is hard, this is a good start. I'd prefer to see the dark hematite against a background that wasn't black, though.

How sweet Tom, I am sure she is going to love them. I work in a bead store (we also sell science & nature stuff..rocks and minerals, fossils, crystals) and My wife loves when I make her stuff.

Hematite is a very popular stone in the bead trade.

Boy you sure put a lot of stuff together for this photo TomB. But hey, it looks really far out.

You did some nice work on the jewelry TomB, you ain't in the dog house are you and trying to make up I hope?
