Thanks ladies! I can''t stop looking at it - I wish it would get sunny just for a minute to take pictures but it''s been raining all day. Dang it!

hmmmmm....what''s it been, going on 4 days now? WHERE ARE THE PICS **stamps foot**


LS

LOL omg I totally forgot. I have had a very bad couple of days so I honestly didn''t think of it, I was too busy pouting. Here''s a promise I''ll take some for you tomorrow.

Looking forward to the new pic''s MP

It looks great so far so it should be tops with a bit more light to shoot with.

I finally got a couple sunlight pics, but I can''t seem to capture the color properly :/ It always looks washed out even though it''s really sparkly and full of bright, broad pink flashes.

Another.

I''ll try again in noon sunlight tomorrow since it''s Saturday.

MP, this worked for me:

Take it outside but stand under a tree. So you get diffused light. It WILL sparkle!

The other way (and yes, this sounds really weird) but I got the most sparkle in drizzly/overcast late afternoon....

This is a great way to get some diffused sunlight!

MP- I don''t know how I missed this before, but it looks so pretty! And I can''t believe your husband picked out the setting; mine would never even consider such a thing

Are you loooooooving the asscher?!?! I am on Jeff''s waitlist for one... I may have to drop him an email and see if he has any idea on ETA. I am so anxious to get an asscher.

LS, I''ll try that tomorrow - by the time I took these, the sun was going down so I had limited direct light. I''ll try to find something to set it on too lol. I kept wobbling. I''m exhausted.

icekid, thanks! I love the asscher SO MUCH. I have worn it almost every day since I got it and I can''t stop staring at it. The setting is so dainty and tiny it feels like I am not even wearing a ring. My husband did a great job

Looks awesome, beautiful!!!

How pretty! Your husband has great taste!

What a smart idea! Proof that you don''t have to spend a fortune for settings! I think the stone looks wonderful in that setting!
