[QUOTE="Lefty, post: 475938, member: 2976"] Can't show it :( Just finished a beautiful Harts range zircon in a pentagonal cushion. It finished at 8.3 carats and is a peachy-pink colour with slight brown tones. The high crown has really boosted the dispersion and it displays dispersion to rival a diamond!!! A mass of fiery, rainbow-coloured sparks and flashes! But despite mucking around with white balance etc until the cows come home.....the camera sees a lifeless, dispersionless stone varying between dirty muddy brown and a grey smoky quartz tone :( Video was slightly better but still can't even remotely do it justice.
