  2. YAH!!! Good going - Gold and sparkles! You have started the year well.

    Rings are horrible to photograph. Best way I have found is to use a sheet of A4 as background and support the edge of the ring with a smaller strip of white paper that is creased down the middle (this should blend in with the background). Oh yeah and use Macro mode on the camera if it has it and LED lights from the side.
