    You seem to be in good shape on the photo dept. The lighting is pleasing and the image is sharp. The Background seems a bit noise, could be the ISO set up or too much sharpening tool. but still the image look pretty good.
    Now the bowl, that looks great.
    Congrats
    Alex

    I agree, Steve. I also love the SW forms, but Her Majesty doesn't, so I don't do very many of them. I like the symmetry of this one. I presume the inside is sanded to 35,000 and buffed to a beautiful sheen...
    Well done!

    And.... I'm located just 1,075 miles SW of Steve Schlumpf.

    Steve,
    Pictures are excellent, but you hadda ask. Could the background be just a bit lighter (software?), and is there a way to put some light under the piece? Just asking, not criticizing.

    Beautiful piece of wood and a beautiful form to compliment it.

    Regards, Steve

    Steve, that is one lovely looking piece. On the matter of photography, about the only thing I can say is that the overall contrast of the image seems a bit flat. Perhaps some post-processing with dodge/burn in Photoshop (or the GIMP)?
    That's not a light at the end of the tunnel; It's a naked singularity.

    Don't know much about photography but I'm impressed that the beauty of the wood takes precedence over the finish. Really nice.

    Thanks everyone for your kind comments!

    Julie, I actually posted #7 a while ago. You can view it here: http://www.sawmillcreek.org/showthread.php?t=69459

    I managed to post these hollow forms out of sequence because I finally received my photo tent and backdrop this week and didn't have anything to take photos of that everyone here hadn't already seen. Hope everyone likes the hollow forms so far - as #8 is drying and is just a few days from being able to buff out and post.
