This is for Enny who requested an engagement ring shot ages ago after a Wedding Bee (A wedding blog!) e-ring photo extravaganza…
I felt a little bit silly taking a photo of my engagement ring. I took a couple but I liked this one, on top of the puzzle pieces the best!!! We still haven`t finished the puzzle which my Dad brought home several weeks back of the Sydney Harbor Bridge & Opera House…all that is left though is the blue water to do (we completed the blue sky!)

I am just a twenty something Aussie girl living in Chiba, Japan with my Japanese husband trying to make sense of the crazy Japanese world we live in! We welcomed our first son in December 2009 (Noah) and a second son in January 2011, 2 months premature (Shion). I am working hard at raising them to be confident, bilingual, happy kids!
Love the focus! And it’s a beautiful ring.
Very pretty ring ^^ I like your photography…all very nice angles (Don’t know the term…but the WAY you take the pictures)
Your photography is stunning. Keep up the fabulous work!!!
Guera- Thanks! Coming from you that is a huge compliment considering what a wonderful photographer you are.
Khea- Thanks! Shun & I get engaged a little unexpectedly so there was no ring- we choose this one together. I like it so much because of the little blue diamon in it- my wedding ring has a couple of blue diamonds also!!! You can`t really see it in this photo!!!
Girl Japan- Thanks!!! I enjoy taking photos but wish I had more time to get my camera out and play!
I like it! I had to look again to see the blue diamond but I think that was because I was distracted by the dazzle in the middle.
I have the same setting (forget the name) and I love it. I always think of it as the diamond (mois of course!) being supported, protected, caressed, but *not enclosed or encaged* by the platinum (DH) a little over thinking it all perhaps but I like it. 
Oh and I think the piece on the left goes with the one on the far right… ;P
Hi! You are always so fast to comment on my blog! Sorry I don’t comment more on yours. I love the ring photo too, very interesting to have it on top of the puzzle, and beautiful colours, nice ring. I also loved the 80s party photos- looked like a lot of fun and nice to see people go all out. It was a great decade (I was in high school then when some of those fashions were cool
Beautiful ring!
I love that shot! I love the focus and the lighting. Gorgeous ring too!
Heather- You are probably right that those pics go together- thanks for the hint! hehe
You analogy is cute! I like that us girls are the diamonds!
Christelle- I read all the blogs through a reader and it is usually open at night when I am surfing the net, watching something, or writing emails so I see when you update fairly quickly if it is during the week at night! Plus, I love to hop on over to see what Jonah has been up to!!!
Biz319- Thank you!
Melanie- Thanks! I love it too!
Wow!

Lulu!!!
Awseome!!!
We’ll make you a bee yet
Great ring and great photo too. I would like to take better pictures and I am wondering if a better camera might be the answer. What kind of camera do yo use?
Lulu, you are ludicrously talented. This is such an amazing shot, I want to eat your brains and gain your knowledge
(that’s meant as a compliment)
You have a really good eye with taking pictures! I loved this shot! And what a lovely ring!
