Nice and colorful. The positioning shows the item in and interesting manner. I don't know if this is for a product shot or not, if it is I think it might be cropped a little tighter. The main problem here is the focusing / DOF. The front beads aren't sharp, the beads half way back are the sharpest in the image. Focusing a little closer to the camera and a smaller f stop would correct this. I might try using a diffuser and reflector rather than straight window light and flash. That would soften the light and not using the flash would eliminate the white spots on the beads. Since this is a table top setup it's easy to try again, provided you still have the beads.

Another beautiful image.

It has impact but would be a much stronger image if the processing were redone. I thing the image itself is good but the HDR style processing calls attention to the the technique and away from the subject. It's created halos and over sharpening has created a white line around all the camel, cart, people and edge of the sand where it meets the sky. I think if you redid the processing it would be a very good image.

Lovely colors and technique. Very much like a painting. Very nice.

Lovely lighting and color. The framing composition and framing is good. I don't know what the settings were but personally I'd like a touch more DOF. The only thing I'd remove are the two dark specs about an inch to the right of the head. The background is nice and smooth so it makes them stand out more.
