it's the elegant woman's best friend

this is a three-fer:

for today's make 30 challenge the challenge is 'depth'.

for this week's 52 captures' product photography prompt.

also this week for 52 frames, the challenge is common object with product photography as the extra challenge.

then we add this month's perspectives theme and the on-going six-word story challenge.

i spent an inordinate amount of time with different things i can rummage around the home but in the end, the pearls turned out to be the photo for today.

two thinking: (1) the bokeh seems to overpower the subject; and (2) the bokeh seems to complement the subject. but, whatever, non?

P.S. - as per deb's comment, i edited this further by blurring the bokeh a little bit so that they don't take away from the pearl earrings.

Fabulous image, love the pearl size bokeh as well.

[Maggiemae]

You have caught the gloss so beautifully! fav

I love the pearls and their reflections. I like the idea of the bokeh, but I would like it better if the bokeh was more blurred. Just my opinion, hope you don’t mind.

@shutterbug49 - i see what you mean and i've edited it a bit more. how's this one?

[JackieR]

I think it's a fourer? I wonder if the bokeh was warmer, and less blue, it would compliment the pearls??

Beautiful shot

[Susan Wakely]

I recognised this instantly as yours. Classy.

[Kathy A]

Love the pearls, love the reflections, love the bokeh but like Jackie said, I think the bokeh should be warmer to compliment rather than contrast

[katy]

Terrific capture of the pearls and the bokeh. I like the POV and the reflections. Well done

[Louise & Ken]

You certainly know how to master it all!
