OOoO prettyness, I love the way the garnets on the shovel are darker than the ones on the table. It's like as the garnets are poured and escape the shovel they become lighter in colour and clearer because they are free!!!!!!! What's your job, it seems pretty interetsing if you get to work with shiney stuff and take photos

Thank you sooo much!! 
I work for an online jewelry and beading company. I do most of the product imaging, though for actual product images I don't get to be as creative. There are so many shiny things here!! I get distracted so easily

This shot looks lke you placed each bead individually. The white background makes it look like it is a very precise picture. Was this taken on a light table?

I took it on a clear plastic riser that was sitting on a white table in front of a large window. I actually ended up cropping this more on the left than I wanted to but you could see some shadowing from the riser stand thingy. I am actually really suprised everytime something turns out this way since the riser and table are all scratched and yet it doesn't show

Wow, this is really really beautiful. I love the color of garnets. I am damn lucky to have them for my birthstone. This is really beautiful. You are really great at shooting studio style photographs.... Something that many would hang on thier walls. It is like you have a shovel of love you are spilling out to everyone who see's this great photograph... Great one.

Why thank you
So, that would make you a January baby if I have my birthstones right.
So this is pretty much what I do all day, although I don't get to be as creative and I do have to do the more mundane things associated with any business.
So now I want to go back through all our old stock to see if there are other things I could play around with and get them done before I head out to a new job.
Thank you once again for your wonderul words and loads of encouragement!!
