Look at the 3 pics and tell me which background color you prefer. Working on my photo taking skills. The 3 backgrounds are dark blue, light yellow and ....ummm....some shade of greenish turquoise??? Which one do you like in regards to how it sets off the piece?
FYI - The checker board is solid walnut and figured sycamore with a solid walnut frame & thin maple accent stripe. When these pics were taken the finish was not complete. As shown here the pores are filled w/ 2 coats Target high solids 5100 which was lightly sanded and a coat of blond shellac applied. After these pics a 2nd coat of shellac and then multiple coats of water based lacquer (acrylic) was applied.
I'm having issues with glare on pics of the finished piece. Seems like no matter what angle I use, I have glare from external lights or flash.
Critical comments are welcome.
