Default Pearls

I just got back from China. We toured with a tour company andf they took us to a pearl place. and apparently gold pearls are super rare and expensive.

Gold Pearl

yeah just shot a afew. not much. this next one is just a regular one.

Silver Pearl

I've never shot jewelery before so they didn't turn out great. and i didn't realize it was so hard. i have like 50 shots and only 2 usable ones. even with a vision it was hard to take oh wellz.

It's odd, isn't it, how such a "simple" shot can be so complicated but you sure nailed the first shot. That's just terrific! It's simple and dramatic. The colors are really nice with the contrast of the black background and the gold pearl. As an aside. My Son-in-law grew up in Cupertino. I love hiking in the hills above the city. Pretty place to live.
