Hi guys,

I've finally figured out how to upload a picture of my ring. I have three coming. My cameral is not the best, so forgive the quality, and as you all know pictures do not do a diamond justice. So....voila!!

And here is another attempt. Its set in a yellow gold band with a platinum head. The jeweler convinced of that extra expenditure. Its yellow to go with my original band.

Wow, that's very elegant and very pretty.

So now we have two things in common:
1 - both flutists
2 - both wear yellow gold e-ring and w-ring

And here is the required hand picture after much experimentation and struggle. I've learned how to crop and enhance pictures as a result. You can teach an old dog new tricks.

I've got to get a better picture of this. By the 25th of September, my son is having senior pictures taken and my buddy will take some really nice ones again.

Thanks for all you nice comments. Its simple with not a lot stuff going on, but thats me. I feel comfortable wearing it.

Hi cflutist,

Did you have a nice camping trip. Thanks for the compliments on my ring. The pictures really do not do it justice and I was almost not going to post any, but so many people were waiting, sevens one,for one. I'm going to have some professional pictures done for my insurance and I'll send you those. Right now as I am typing the sun is hitting my diamond indirectly sending rainbows everywhere. What fun!!

Suz

Thanks for being such a good email buddy.

Congrats! Your ring is just lovely--I really do prefer the classic styles such as yours--shows off the fabulous center stone so well! And it does look smashing on your hand!

PS Stop insulting your hands--take it from me, a reformed "self hand hater."

Congrats on your anniversary Sparker! My husband and I just celebrated our 25th too. Your ring is beautiful! Classic and simple and elegant...

About hands...I have never liked my wrinkly hands. I don't think that they looks as bad as they do in the close up photos, though. When I posted a picture of my ring when I got it, I slightly blurred the picture in photoshop so my hand wouldn't look so bad. I later saw that Barry had posted the same picture on his website of my hand and the ring, but he obviously had put it back into photoshop and sharpened it up, LOL.

Congratulations Sparker! That's a beautiful ring, and looks perfect with your wedding band on your hand. I blame the "old hands" look on the macro feature of the camera. Too bad you can't just macro the ring, not the hands!

Enjoy the sparkles, and congrats on your 25 years also!
