[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 10256660, member: 2844"]I guess the Zeeuwse knoop-like pendant was originally a brooch.

That is not original. While balancing on one leg?:angelic: The last lot of photos you took are in bright sunlight. Great for creating a harsh contrasting effect, impossible to see what you are actually looking at.:wacky: Do you see the difference between the photos you took and the photos in the Etsy listing? They use a plain light background, well lit but no bright sunlight. Few of us are professional photographers, but if you can come close to the Etsy photos it would be a great help for future jewellery shots.:)[/QUOTE]
