I'm bothered by the solarized highlights in the paper. -- Victor

very nice, like the spot light effect and the colored paper works well. *could be a bit sharper?

Isn't it frustrating when you can't get it quite right? But then it's so worth while when you get an idea like you just did ;) good luck!

Thanks, it took ages to get right. The background is shiny wrapping paper, and the lighting by maglite. I tried all sorts of things including lighting the daff from behind. At one point I cut a hole in the paper and tried lighting the whole thing from behind. It didn't work, so in frustration I screwed the paper up and threw it away...

Hang on, I've got a great idea...
