What stones are with it? Garnet?

The photo looks pretty well lit to me. Possibly a white card to throw just a little more light on the bottom side. Can you set the size of the photo on your camera? Smaller pic with a single background. Just my opinion. I am not a jewelry photographer.

My mind is slow to react sometimes. Jim

I thought about how I could use my light box for better night pics but haven't figured out or had time to as of yet

Hey guys, Thanks for all the advise it was very helpful.. The ring is something I came up with on my own last winter while I was snowed in ,trying to figure out how to get a cab into a ring that was my own design. It works for both beads and cabs beads and is fairly simple, I have it down to about 5-7 minutes. I'll take pics at other angles and post soon ( Kids have the flu so it might be a day or two )

Jody you might try using a photo editing program to help resize and sharpen pics as well as crop out useless background items. I use one called photoscape which is a free download as is another one called irfanview. I find it much better than using the paint program. Beautiful work!

rocknrob: There was a shop in Portland, don't know if it's still there called Kenny and Zukes who made the absolute best pastrami sandwiches I have ever had. The problem is every restaurant thinks their sandwich is worth $20 now and seldom makes the grade. Nov 12, 2024 9:53:31 GMT -5

rocknrob: So, to end my thread on sandwiches. If you find your sandwich worthy of that price by all means keep going to that restaurant (chewie)
