Well, Elgar, I'm not quite sure what your question is specifically, so I'll just tell you what I see.

It looks as though the image is fine regarding light return. However, this image is likely not an H&A. The culet appears to be off-center....see how the arrow in the 9 o'clock position is fatter near the middle, and it's squished when compared to the one in the 3 o'clock position.

Also, the arrowheads in the 6, 8, and 12 o'clock positions are slightly off from their bases.

If the price is right on the diamond, it may still be a great performer. Just make sure the price reflects that it's not H&A and that it's a bit off center.

After having my own thread with firescope and idealscope image analysis, I can offer you what I have learned. It looks like the light leakages is very minimal to non. However, like al said, the arrows are not quite touching in some of the areas. Now, if you are not buying this diamond as a hearts and arrows diamond then you are doing fine. It has great light return and looks good.

Go see it if you can.
