OK------here is some shots of the dogwood jewelery boxes with a little finish applied.

For some reason I am not getting consistent quality on the photos so make allowances for my ignorance.

Jerry,
Looking good, as does all your work. I really like the figure in the tops.
I'm curious, are you using a digital camera? The photos you do in the shop seems to be green like you are using a film camera with cool white tubes.

Rob---I am using a digital camera with the setting at the highest pixel. I have taken pics with and without flash, different settings for close up, medium range , etc. Some of them seem to have an amber tint to me. I don't know what it is. Maybe I just need a better camera.

Great looking work irreguardless of the color!
(Check the White Balance setting on your camera...the pictures looks like it's not matching the lighting)

The figure in the bottom right pic is great! I assume the top right is closest to the true color. As others have said, check our white balance to adjust for color. My Canon has a setting for florescents.
