Practicing with my camera = new Malaya garnet pics

[omieluv]

For the past couple of days, I have been practicing with my camera using my cat as a model. Today, she was not cooperating, so I decided to focus on a subject that does not sass back. Today, the malaya is showing off its red.

That''s it for now. If the sun comes out, I will see if I can catch its flashes of orange. Thanks for looking!

I love it omie. I think it''s absolutely stunning. And good job with practicing!!!

Such marvelous color and cut... thank you for sharing the photos. BTW, I feel your frustration: my cat used to toss my rings in the air during our photo sessions. She''s retired from modeling now...

Thanks Freke! I am still working on my photo skills, as I should be able to get closer than I was able to. BTW, your gems are lovely! I would love to play with your gems, yummy!

Thanks Rockit and it was my pleasure sharing. That is so funny about your cat, she sounds fun. Post some pictures of her in the ragdoll thread in the hangout!

Thanks Mochi. The cut is awesome, it was one of the reasons why I bought it, as it really brings out the color in the stone.
