Gosh, I just LOVE your beautiful stones! ALL your beautiful stones!!
My favorite stones are tourmalines and I have a small collection that I keep promising myself I will mount into rings and stuff... eventually.
Alas, I can''t take pictures worth a darn and it pains me, cause I''d love to show my preciouses to you.
Anyway, here is a (very bad) attempt of some of my honeys.

 

[gemnut]

Ugh that was bad! Sorry stones!!! And sorry for the insult to your eyes guys! I think i''ll stop trying to photograph anything for a loooong time!

OMG TL, I gotta come into this thread more often! Holy Moly that''s nice. Can you zoom out a bit and post a hand shot with your entire hand, so we can see how it looks on you.

TL, I noticed that you put up pics of your colored diamond rings in the gallery. It''s about time! Very sparkly!

Here you go. Pardon the extremely fat swollen fingers. I was heavily retaining water after a three mile walk. Yes, I wear my gems while I walk so I have something to look at.

Congrats, Harriet!

 

[Harriet]

Thanks, folks.

PR,
I''d give you the naming honours, but Miranda and I have already named this one.

Awww...how sweet of you to think of me! So what''s his name?

 

[Harriet]

Too juvenile to reveal.

TL, platinumrock, Lori - you are all too kind, thanks. I really do wish I could do better though, because in real life those tourmalines are gorgeous! I''d love to show them to you. There are so many other things I''d love to be able to photograph. My beautiful colored sapphires. a drop dead tanzanite I recently got, a rare watermelon tourmaline, an even rarer bixbite... *sigh* Until I become a better photographer, I''ll have to leave it to your imagination

Thank you all for posting your pictures, though!! If I wasn''t already highly addicted to colored stones, I would become addicted after seeing all these!

Thank you TL....that means a lot to me especially since I admire YOUR collection SO much!!! DH is fussing about my using the cell phone so much and now we''re in the process of figuring out the digi cam so I can show you the pretties in their boxes.

Play fair, Harriet - or we might just give it a nickname

 

[Harriet]

Please re-name it. My dealer will kill me if he knew its original name.

 

[EHR2009]

WOW! Knitwit your aqua is AMAZING!!!

 

[loriken214]

This is my oval pink sapphire and rb diamond ring....I just love it. It came from Bailey, Banks and Biddle and I don''t remember the specs...it sparkles like mad.

Lori

 

[gemnut]

GORGEOUS PINK!!!!!! Every other pink sapphire I''ve ever seen, mine included, tends to purplish. I''ve never seen such a scrumptious pink before! YUMMY!!

 

[gemnut]

Well, i finally managed to get an almost passable picture of my elbite tourmaline and RB diamonds ring - one of my very favorites. Hope you enjoy!

Here is my three week old half bezel 1.23 ct. champagne diamond e-ring. I love it, as it is unique and the setting is from my mother. I''m a bit self concious of how masculine it looks to me sometimes, and people have been giving me mixed opinions on what they think of it...a lot of people prefer white gold and diamonds....and mine goes against the grain enjoy!
