Help! I need to take a jewelry photo.

[lisashomeoffice]

I won this men's watch on the Bidz site and want to list it with Ebay. I don't have a pre- made photo of this watch, so I guess I will have to take one myself. I have a hard enough time taking photos for my listings, much worse a piece jewelry. How should I go about this? What would be an easy way to do this? My little Kodak easy share has a close up feature;however, I am not sure how well I can take this photo up close and keep clarity. All I have is a little point and shoot. Make it easy if you can.

Taking nice digital pictures, especially with macro mode, requires a lot of trial and error and especially good lighting. There are any number of tutorials on the internet that can help to give you a good beginning for this. You can find one of them here (http://www.photoxels.com/digital-photography-tutorials.html). I have done a lot of practive with my camera and think that my pictures have come out fairly nice.
