Laurel, care to share the brand and model of your magic camera. You certainly have magic photography talents!

And you have a truly beautiful ring

It''s just a Cannon point & shoot SD400 Digital Elph 4.0 megapixel that I bought in 2004 (I think it''s a 2003 model since I got it early in 2004). I''ve kind of been wanting to get a newer camera because this one is pretty bulky compared to the slim little cameras that are out now (and it''s stainless steel, so it''s heavy), but it takes such good pictures that I''ve been putting it off.

And thank you, I quite like my ring, myself!

Oh wow!! That is soo beautiful!
I can''t get over the color of it, so nice

Thank you! It was the color that I was drawn to originally when I saw the stone on Richard Homer''s site. It was slightly smaller than I had wanted, but I kept going back to look at it because there was just something about it that I loved! I''m so glad that I went with it because it''s just so gorgeous in person!

It is beautiful. Unique and classic at the same time. The color of your stone is amazing. I have never seen a sapphire that color. Great job taking pictures by the way. Congratulations

Thank you so much! Unique and classic was exactly what I was going for, so I''m glad that''s how it turned out! Richard Homer really has a great eye when it comes to picking stones with great color and then cutting them to make the most of the stone!

Thank you! I really love the profile of the ring - to me the profile is just as important and the view from the top and I like how curvy the prongs are on this setting. It looks a little bulkier in the photos than it does in real life though. In person, the prongs look very small and delicate.

Thanks! I love it and I''m so glad that I went with this setting! I loved the double prong look and was having such a hard time finding something I really liked - thanks for all your help!

LOL! I''m already planning all the different types of bands I''d like to have eventually! I want to have a very thin common prong band for my wedding band and then an alternating sapphire & diamond anniversary band and maybe eventually a bezel set baguette & round band with milgrain... I think I have a sickness!

Oh it is gorgeous! I can understand why you are pleased with the way it turned out!

what a scrummy colour! Lovely and the setting you''ve chosen is perfect!

 

[laurel25]

loriken214 & LovingDiamonds - Thanks so much! I agonized over the setting - I was completely torn between the plain solitaire look and something a bit blingier (WF Petite Open Cathedral), but was convinced by people here on PS, my family, and my co-workers (yes, I brought everyone around me into my jewelry insanity, if only for a brief time!) that the solitaire was the way to go and I''m so glad I chose it! It really allows the stone to pop - especially in the sunlight - it''s just amazing!

Laurel - I''ve been gone for a bit, but WOW! Gorgeous, gorgeous ring, and stunning colour!!!!
