hand shots finally!

[samkongado]

Ok, well it only took a week until we got good weather and some sunlight, but I finally got some hand shots (on her this time, I already had some on my hairy fingers!). Unfortunately, my finace has the patience of a small rodent, and I was lucky to get two decent shots. I was trying to mess around with different settings, lighting, and macro stuff but she got tired of it and didn''t want to take anymore photos. I can''t guarantee any more, but here''s the best I could do...

Here's one more. I know it's tough to see the real beauty of the diamond, but I swear it's sparkly!

Ok, now I''m going to post the pics that I took a couple weeks ago B.P. (before proposal) on my own hands, and I was willing to take a bunch of photos before I got a few that turned out good.

I just responded to the SMTR thread. The ring looks gorgeous, and beautiful on her hand! Congrats on your engagement!!

OH! Gorgeous! Those last 2 photos are YUM!

And I had to laugh when you said she got tired of your taking photos of the ring! Here on PS, that''s almost unheard of!
