@aestheticdust You want to use a setting on most cameras called 'macro', its usually represented by a little flower symbol on most cameras. That's for taking really close up photos. That should capture every little detail of the stones.

Great stones there. How do you photograph rough gems effectively? I have about twenty years old Burmese ruby rough of all qualities and sizes and the it is a huge stash.
