My husband surprised me with this beautiful ring for Valentine's day--this is really special because I am a very practical person. If I needed a blender, I would ask for a blender for Valentine's day. :) But my husband said he has always wanted to get me jewelry--which I pretty much always shot down because of expense and practicality.
But this year he did it...and I have to say, I loved it. It was such a thoughtful gift...and I have found myself glancing down at my finger all day getting giddy thinking about how much I love that special guy!! :) He made sure to say he thought I was beautiful on the inside and out and that I deserved to wear beautiful things.
Nothing like a little bling to make you feel AMAZING...and totally in love. :)

Your ring is absolutely gorgeous! I know you've felt so special today with new sparkles on your hand!
Gorgeous picture too!
Okay, so how and where did you take that picture? It's as gorgeous as the ring!
The picture looks straight out of a catalog!
I'm practical like that too - I usually ask for something I need. It's so fun and romantic when husbands think beyond what you ask for!
I'm like that too! In fact, I don't celebrate V Day on the fourteenth because you can buy flowers and chocolates for a third of the price Feb 15!!
I actually took this picture on a glass-topped end table I have that sits in front of a window. It's actually where I take a lot of my pictures because it's great light! :) So, natural light, no flash. ISO 400, f 5.6, 1/100. The only editing I did was a sepia and sharpening in Lightroom.
I originally didn't want to get the jewelers name in the picture. So I took abut 15 pictures from the top view so you just saw the top of the lid and the ring in the box. But as I was looking through the pictures on the computer, I was much more drawn to the 2-3 shots I took with the name in it. It "spoke" to me...it felt like it told me a story. And suddenly the name didn't seen so distracting. Sounds, cheesy, huh? But that's the how and why I chose this picture. :)
oh ya, and I shot it in RAW..
Ohhh, I'm in LOVE with your ring!!! ...and you totally deserve it too!
I didn't think the name of the jewler was distracting. Wonderful shot!
Great shot! It looks like a magazine jewelry ad.
You deserve it, you beautiful woman!! And I really like the photo. I don't think the jeweler's name is distracting and I like that the texture on the box is so defined.
Gorgeous! I love the ring and picture! I want to see the ring on your finger, too... you'll have to post that on your blog. :)
