I try to photograph my pearls mid morning, in natural light, in the shade. Then I try to color correct in my photo app, so they look like they do to my eye.

Ok, I followed the advice - thanks! Here they are on a windowsill facing south though it is gray and cloudy today. It’s mid afternoon. I adjusted the color to “neutral.” Better!

Zircon nuggets wrapped on gold-filled wire. Matching earrings with golden akoyas. I love the honey/amber color.

@MintyFresh what a cool combination I love the Amber that is very unexpected. I love it.

Thanks, MMTwo. I’m actually sort of bad with colors but figured gold and pale gold and amber? How can you go wrong staying in the same color family? I often refer to books or the internet for color combinations. I even have this little Japanese book of color combinations for clothes and such for guidance.
