Take the photo with a high resolution camera.

Then crop the image with a photo editor.

Use a Macro lens on the smart phone.

First thing you need to do is turn your camera's function knob to the MACRO function, as shown with the flower.

Now you MUST use a tripod or at the very least, lean the camera against a solid object to get a picture with absolutely no shaking when the picture is being taken. If you just hold the camera in your hand sand shoot, the picture will be blurry. The "best" way to shoot is with a tripod and using the automatic timer setting. The automatic timer will beep for 10 seconds or so, then automatically take the picture. Use the highest resolution for your settings on the camera. That allows you to still enlarge your photo and remain nice and crisp.

Now, again, using the information from above, take a picture of the ring with as little amount of non-ring in the picture. Now you have a closeup of the ring, and you can adjust it's size to your liking to post it.

If you have a macro camera lense, that will even get you a more detail. However, the macro setting with your camera and lense should do a pretty good job.

Good luck! Thank goodness we have digital cameras as it costs you nothing to experiment until you get your "BEST" photo.

Good luck
