My sister asked me to display some of her pearls, with a Japanese 
flavour. Lighting pearls was harder than I had expected. Those shiny 
surfaces bounce light everywhere, focusing the digilux 1 on a string of 
pearls was a nightmare, and keeping shadows down to a minimum was 
tricky: so how should I have done it, and any suggestions for the 
"set-up".

So this week's PAW:

and alternative:

comments would be very helpful

Cheers
