Outdoors in this country is just too bright unfortunately, I seem to recall seeing a cloud around 4 months ago!
HAHA! We have a good amount of clouds today, if I could I would send some to you.

My wife is a photographer and since these shots were taken 3 years ago I have got much better at filtering the light source with paper towels, adjusting white balance etc in order to take better shots. I do hesitate at trying to shoot my collection in her studio of course as I fear the "how much did that one cost you?" question.

Hi Glenn,
Here are some of the known flaws on a 1st pattern "B" frame for you to compare. There's a very good thread over on WAF lead by 'Matthieu' that explains everything more in detail....
