2nd July, a present from Skye

I've been at work all day,
then out for dinner with Mrs N.
At the last minute, I remembered the picture.
I asked Pamela to take off her ring.
I bought it last time we were on Skye.

After a spiced rum and cola,
a big dinner, three glasses of wine and a malt whisky
it's hard to tell if it's in focus.
But hopefully it is.
And if it isn't,
then too bad!
We've had a lovely dinner out, and I'm a happy man :-)

Focus or not, the most important thing is being happy !

No, we just don't get out much on our own, heh.

Love those Celtic knots! The ring, with your dinner, and lots and lots of libation suggest a celebration to me. Is today your birthday?? You did a great job on the shot even though your eyes weren't focusing. The camera must have a mind of its own...I should get one of those!

Nice sentiments... and it's in focus!

Absolutely beautiful ring.

Beautiful shot, I love the texture of the material and the gold of the ring. Lovely highlights!

Sounds like you had an exceptional evening! Perhaps I should have a few before I take pictures, too!

My photos don't come out this clear when I'm not drinking. Maybe I should have a few before a take my PaD for the day!!

and well you should be! It sounds like you had a delightful evening with the best company you could find. And that ring is a gorgeous pice of hand wrought artistry that I have seen in a while! Your focus is spot-on . . . but words are a little blurry =]
