Perfect, Laura.

...within my reach, only a few of photograhpers here on photo.net are still able to deliver such technique in a creative, fresh and joyful way. Maybe a part of it is the sparkling of little vivid things lest lay there along with the soft/neutral details of vast coloured areas. Not over the top, either way.

Having kind of dialogue of colours, that you've achieved here... with the blue-lavender, flamy pink-pink, and, finally, wooden tint of brown, 'reflected' well on model's eye... partially appears generously on the pearls.

Leveling is well done. Works well for the B&W; same with the lighting.

The only thing I find arguable, is the floor. It is not perfect, and artifacts are visible on the foreground. Ergo, you might want to wash it out accurately, slightly blur it, bounding yourselves with the narrow feathered circles of the selection back in PS maybe?

Frankly, it is quite possible to eliminate the depth of field in photoshop... unless it is vain - where

you'll decide. Thank you for sharing.
