Short Ribs..I like it. By keeping those trees the pov, it shows stength and endurance in them. Perhaps the trees do not stuggle at all but the image tells me different, all from the pov.  

James, the "glider" shot is a neat one...wonderful color working well in this shot.

As for the the jewelry stuff, tomorrow if time and local resources permit, I will take some down and dirty shots as an intro of how the pros do it for such difficult images with troublesome gemstones compteing with the metal for the image light.  Layers, all that stuff. If this works, I will post a new thread..if not, it will not be showing up anywhere.

Yikes, late here. Time to hit the sack and be hit with cats who believe I am the place to take a nap at night.  Sure, a nap for them..my only sleep.  That is fine with me.        Tom.
