Jewelry Photography

Jewelry is very difficult to light. Aside
from the stones being very small,
is is difficult to get them to reflect 
light to show form and detail.  This
photo was used for an advertisement
to show a ling of rings offered by a
large department store.  It was 
photographed in its case to enhance
its presentation.  A small mirror was
used to reflect light into the stone to
create  strong reflections.
