I could have dug up a more professional answer, but here goes. My uncle is a jeweler who got into photography when learning how to take pictures of his jewelry to post online. He posted some stuff on facebook just now, and he's weirdly private about it so no website or anything; figured I'd just post his stuff.

He ended up getting very "artistic" and now works heavily with some really creative editing, like this:

At the Western Wall in Jerusalem.

He lives in Armenia though, and just posted this breathtaking shot of Mt. Ararat, looking far over the Turkish border from the Khor Virap monastery. Tons of Armenian patriotism around right now because the 100th anniversary of the genocide is coming up April 24th, so it was well received. I mean, god damn, this is a strong photo.
