OH Mara!!!
Yummy eye candy!!! Great job on the picture on the lower right. Keep the pics coming! My digital camera sucks and can't seem to do close up shots. Oh well, I guess I'll live vicariously through you! Oh, I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who cleans her 'baby' at least once a day.  I give her a bath at night and put her to bed after! LOLLaurie |

Very nice Tim..I do like the sharpness even though it looks somewhat more digital. Makes the top left one look better too.
I'm still hoping someone will comment on the negative art one...it reminds me a little of darkfield illumination shots. BTW when I get to work I will post Tim's lovely artwork on my 'enhanced' hand/ring picture...figured this would be an appropriate thread to put that puppy up! Canadian...you like the hats eh? Stylish..I know.

Thanks Tim! I had to resize slightly as it was too huggeee for the screen.

Lugus-Not at all. My ring faces up super white even in near dark conditions. I have a pic at home of my ring in really low bedroom light and it still looks like a little white beacon. The only time I ever see tinges of yellow, and then its such a pronounced yellow that I *know* is is the result of the lighting, is sometimes in a bright yellowish home light with a camera flash and/or similar. It's very rare and its not a tinge of cream but more a yellow hue..so I know it's not the G color in the ring but rather some combo of weird lighting playing off the sparkle.
So sorry to burst your E/F bubble but my G does not ever show me pale tinges of its color that I am sure *is* there somewhere. Though sometimes in really bright sunlight it looks purply blue inside. Cool. I have often wondered if maybe my G faces up whiter due to the tiny side stones along the band? Could they be reflecting some of their light into my stone pavilion since they are set at a lower level than the ring head? Something to consider. The side stones are G VS. |

I'd estimate the first "enhanced" pic to be about 4 - 4 1/2 carats, and the second to be around 9 - 9 1/2 carats, based on extrapolating the weight from the physical dimensions, accounting for the magnification of the stone. Here's the 4 ct. version up-close...

You didn't burst my E/F bubble at all Mara. I bought my E stone because to me it looked totally white. I'm sure somewhere out there, there is someone who would only accept a D stone, and would ask the same questions of me. And to be honest, I'd probably reply using your words, because I feel the same way about my stone

I think it's kind of accepted that in a well-cut stone anything higher than perhaps an "I" or so will face-up colorless to a casual observer unless there is a "more colorless" point of reference to compare it to. It's good to remember that the first three grades are all considered completely colorless, so in theory G/H are just barely yellow. Btw Mara, I like the "negative art" shot. It even got me playing with making a few shots of mine in "negative" form (easy to do to existing pictures with imaging software). None of the ones I tried came out that well though. But, I couldn't stop playing with pics of diamonds. How about this one for taking your "negative art" shot to a new level?

This one of my sweetie's ring came out looking pretty cool. Btw, I had forgotten how much fun it is to play with images. All this stuff I've been doing on the boards has really gotten me into tinkering with images again. I just ordered a new version of my software (the one I've been using is a couple years old) so who knows what weirdness I'll be producing in the days to come.
