Very unique John!. What is that material made of, looks like ribbon but it would be hard to get it to stay like that. They remind me of cookie cutters. I like the shadows in # 2 and 3. Nice job.

John - your gone all Arty on us.
Well spotted for the potential by the way.
Nicely executed pics, love the dark background - is that photoshopped or a natural backdrop?

Cheers John... I'm trying...  Wink

The background is as shot... I daren't say natural... I use the dark exterior of my maplin light tent to get the darkness.... set back aways, and virtually no light in the room, so that the only light was that from the deccies...
