Charmy,
I’m so sorry about your camera. What model is the new one? I see the difference in picture quality compared to the old one.

I really like that setting. I was bidding for it, but I didn''t meet the reserve.

I think the diamonds around the cutlet is the cutest detail.

I got this setting 6 months ago before she started doing these low prices with reserves. I just checked and I paid $345 for it including sizing fee to a 3.

Yikes! I just saw that the exact same setting is now $425 - no sizing or anything extra. I guess I''ll just keep looking.

I think jewe2004 has something similar for quite a bit cheaper. I actually won this setting last night.

Charmy,

They are both Canon point and shoot. The new one is suppose to be a higher model and is rated one of the best point and shoots but I don''t like

I am thinking of picking up a Panasonic with the LEICA lense.

Nice rings, Charmy! I, too, and totally loving the garnet ring. Beautiful

Next up is one of my favorite stones and one I frequently write about. It is an Imperial Malaya Garnet 2.18 ct and 7.5 mm. This stone is so amazing in real life and it is a shame that none of the photos come even close. It is a color shifter that goes from a straight pink in indirect natural light to pink with red flashes under fluorescent lighting and a peachy pink in bright sunlight. This stone also has a higher specific gravity than other Malayas and has an anomolous double refraction. The result is an amazingly sparkly stone. I can''t say enough about this stone .. I adore it. I love the setting I have it in but one day .. I may remake that setting in platinum.

I adore this ring, and this setting. Where is the setting from? It''s to die for!
