[quaeritur]

NICE!!!

Don't you just love those crazy colors?!

 

[KBerly]

beautiful!

love that someone captured the infamous "steering wheel" pic...too funny, it's blinding me!!

 

[Patty]

Great pictures Ame! Your stone is gorgeous! Did you take any more from the side? Isn't your setting the Stuller solstice? I'd love the see more shots of the 6 prong solstice head since I recently got the 4 pronged head.

Nice Pics Ame.

Ame,
Those are great! Did you have a hard time getting the ones through the magnifying glass/loupe? I wish I could capture some close-ups like that!

NS

Yea the loupe shots were really not easy. I probably took 100 to get 3 or 4 reasonably useful shots. I think the only good sparkle photo was the hand shot on the steering wheel. Otherwise it screws up my lens and shutter and just looks like a big bright washed out shot.

Ill try more setting photos. It is the Solstice. Its the 6 prong peg head in their 3mm (sanded to 2) heavy comfort fit plat wdding band.

I just love this cut. The fire is unreal. The Bscope just blew my mind (when I figured out what the heck it all meant).

Thanks all!

Ok a few more

I love the side shots, Ame! The Stuller solstice is such a pretty, round style of head. I also love the look of your solitaire filed down to 2mms instead of 3. It reminds me of my original one that I had filed down years ago. It's very substantial and "tall" but not too wide.

I think the thinner band makes the stone just pop. I sometimes wish I chose the medium head over the low head but I guess because I have to check it 3000 times a day with my loupe that its more secure low. heh.

I like that it will stack better with bands too.

This is a Gorgeous Gorgeous ring+STONE! You must be proud!

 

[dameisers]

This is beautiful!

Have you posted the specs?

 

[Jennifer5973]

That ring is just gorgeous....

I wanted that stuller 6 prong done just like that...but Hubby had other ideas (and probably couldn't tell you what Stuller was if his life depended on it...

)

THAT is what I would have picked for myself. I love it.

That's one lovely diamond. I love it! Great photography too.

Wow, I just still cannot get over that shot of the stone in the dark with all the fire pinpricks...that's just fabulous.

May I have one just like that, please??

A stone or a photo

Yea at first I was kind of thinking "ew. whats that about. stupid camera" and then I figured out what the heck I finally had achieved (color without blinding my camera) and ran around screaming "I am VEEEK TOR EE OUS""

My family knows I have problems so they think nothing of these things.
