>Looks great Ron! I've had the itch to turn a nat edge lately myself. Haven't done one in more than a year. Thanks for the encouragement.

Photo is very dark, by the way.

>Most natural edge stuff looks a little forced to me, but this one looks...well...natural. I love the colors in cherry. Well done.

>I think so, but you made comparison impossible. My hunch is that you don't have enough source wattage/lighting.

One can do an awful lot with photo editors, but I find myself lightening up everything instead of just desired areas when I try to do it with software.

I do like this piece, by the way. I really like the small foot and the curve up and in towards the center at the top, it provides a great sense of lift.

VERY VERY NICE

My only source lighting was an open window. I also used two reflectors. One of these days I need to break down and setup a better photo booth.

>Hi Ron,

I really like this bowl. I always love to see NE bowls and their rough unrefined rims. This one has such a graceful form to it that really sets off the rim. Great piece!

>Ron,

I think your own comment applies: "this is what the fuss is all about". Lovely wood; lovely shape.
