Another bit of Christmas.

I shot this for a local model/designer as part of a catalog shoot. Thoughts?

If this shot was about jewelry, it was the fifth thing I saw. The first thing I saw was her huge well lit elbow and arm. The second was her face. The third was her purse. The forth was the glass ball. The fifth was the bracelet.

The elbow and arm was my first thought as well...didn't notice the bracelet until Benji mentioned it. I like the idea, but the angle is way off for me...

Yeah, I noticed the elbow, after the fact. That's exactly what I was wondering about. Thanks. This particular shot was more orientated toward the purse. But, in any case, not gonna make it, due to the incredible amount of elbow in the frame. Thanks Benji. Agree on the angle, and need to keep that in mind, when looking to shoot a shot like this.

Her shirt has some wrinkles. Maybe time to bust out an iron. Also, the light seems pretty harsh. A reflector on the dark side might be nice. Also, you need to diffuse the primary light source more.
