My god! Trying to get the perfect picture or the best picture out of the diamond is tough, fun, and addictive. I spend a whole night trying to get the right lighting and setting. I mean, once I had over the ring, I doubt I'll be able to hold on to it as long as I have. Onward to the picture!

Great pictures! Love the arrows. It's difficult photographing diamonds and being pressed for time makes it even moreso but you did a fantastic job. Gorgeous ring, thanks for sharing!

Those are REALLY good pictures. Especially that last one, it really shows the diamonds symmetry nicely.

Any tips? I absolutely can NOT get any good ones. Maybe it's my Olympus Camedia 3.2... is anybody else able to take decent close-ups with an Olympus, I cannot get it to focus close up -- even macro mode requires that I stay at least 6" away from the object... sigh.....

Great job. And beautiful ring! Love that setting. Is it a D'Vatche x-prong?

Thanks Thanks!

What I did was placed the 10x loupe in front of the camera lens and steady hands. For most of them I had to place the ring and camera on a table to get it steady. For the color of the shots, just play with the settings on the camera. I used the Canon S230. Had it had manual focus, i wouldn't have need to use the 10x loupe. But the loupe brings out the detail very nicely. Try it with the loupe! You'll be surprised.

Originally I was going to go with the D'Vatche X-Prong. However Lesley (Whiteflash.com) pointed out to me that they made their own ring similar to that except it's a W-Prong. Although personally, I like the X-Prong because of it's simplicity and the fuildiness of the design. But WF W-Prong looks very nice and similiar to it. That and it's $145 less <--- going towards insurance!

If you have any questions about taking the pics, PM me and I'll be glad to help (do so before Sunday...I'll be gone for hawaii after that).

I also purcahsed the W-Prong (I think I was one of the very first) and am so glad I made the decision. My fiancee gets almost as many compliments on the setting as she does the rock.
