BELFAST, Maine — Do you recognize this ring?
If you do, you might help Belfast police return something valuable to its owner — a good camera that was found during last month’s Maine Celtic Celebration.
The photo of a ring on a woman’s hand was on the camera, which was found near the Belfast Boathouse during the festival, held July 20-22.
Police are trying to identify the woman wearing the ring, and through her locate the camera’s owner.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Belfast Police Department at 338-2420.
there is a website, http://www.ifoundyourcamera.net/
It would be a good idea to share this on that site as well…perhaps the person who lost the camera is not local, so he/she may not see the article or be known by anyone locally. Consider sharing the picture at the above wesbite which is seen globally!
That’s an Irish Claddagh ring. It would be pretty common among the Celtic attendees.
Claddagh? Now you’re just making up words.
It is a Claddagh ring. And that one is being worn as a wedding ring!
Only when the silver tab is turned in towards the hand is it a sign of marriage.
That is not a tab, it is a crown. And when the point of the heart is to the wrist, it signifies marriage. Just the way I wear my own Claddagh wedding ring.

If it is a really nice Nikon DSLR than its mine… I swear.
so nice to know that there are still honest people out there!
Yes, and the camera was successfully returned to the woman who lost it.
A Celtic celebration? And the woman was wearing an Irish ring? Good luck with that.
Don’t recognize the ring but the hand looks familiar.
Left, I believe.
Sounds to me folk’s that there might be something more on that camera then there letting on! Why would the police dept go out on a limb to have an expensive camera returned.They (the police)rarely place add’s saying theyve recovered a bunch of stolen property from a burglary bust,come on down and Identify it!!Just seems weird to me,I think someone found something on it
That makes sense. It’s like the “You’ve won a trip” . You show up to claim your prize and get arrested.
Well, you were wrong. Simply the Belfast PD trying to return a lost camera, which they did successfully. Not EVERY story needs to be turned into an OMG, they must be an awful person story.

As it happens, I recognized the ring, a picture of which my great-nephew’s fiancee had posted on Facebook a couple of weeks ago, it being her brand-new engagement ring. Wasn’t sure it was hers of course (the picture I’d seen was worn in the opposite direction, and this photo was found at a Celtic celebration after all) so I zapped her a message on FB, and by golly she HAD lost her camera here in Belfast at the Fair. What a great way to find the owner of a lost camera! Thanks, Belfast police; you are our heroes!
