Bob,
What you'd like to take away from the photography article is how to take a photo of a carving without detracting from it. The article was great and helped improve the look of the photos. I use a piece posterboard (89 cents) and two work lights I had for the lighting. Read the tips and gave it a try anything was better than my past attempts...

Kenny,
You're right, someone else made that comment, I believe it would be easy to put him in a uniform and change the tie to scarf with a slide...

Nice job Tony.

That pose can be used for lots of variations with a little wardrobe change.
