Very timely as I am currently exploring shooting a group of objet d'art on various backgrounds. Now I am tempted to give up!

Working with this object, arranging light to bring out its form, color and texture without exaggeration, proved a challenge. With each failed attempt I learned more about this beautiful object and the light falling upon it. If any of you have knowledge regarding these objects; I'd love to hear from you about its age, hitory, etc. <http://www.imagist.com/blog/?p=398> Slide show of additional views <http://www.imagist.com/mexican_head> Fond regards, George george@imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
