Steve Red Mallee is tough stuff you have turned and finished well. Sometimes the Mallees seem to provide a challenge to photograph for me so I understand where you are at. There are so many weird light bulbs out there now if I mix different wattages I get quirky colours. Every day I get adds through pressing the newish LED,s as well. The brilliant finish you do makes high reflectance. Good pen like those clips.:thumbs::thumbs:

it was real tough stuff
the lid section is like a huge knot
i used 3 x 5500k 135w bulbs with a diy light box (and still could not get it right)
i need a new camera and resorted to the iphone
