I'd be happy to make another one, I really enjoy that type of work.

Send me a PM and I'll give you the company contact info.

Here are the finished pics, unfortunately I couldn't get any that really show the grain or colour.

@Glenn's partner (and anyone else who'd like one ) I've been advised that pricing would be in the low 20s.

An impressive sized piece of granite next to it as well!

Just a tip for taking a pic in a situation like that (as long as you are not using just a phone): a Polarising filter would have knocked out all those reflections on the table and revealed the finish and timber beautifully. In that situation, at that angle it would virtually 100% knockout of reflection.

If you are using a phone then the best way to get a great pic out of it is: use it to make a call to place an order for a camera.....

Edit: Oh, and turn the interior lights on.

Everything in that house was impressively sized, including the boat in the garage

It was with a phone, I wasn't the photographer and I do know about polarising filters - dad's a professional photographer (a real one, with a uni degree, not just a guy with an expensive camera who gets paid to take photos).

But even without a real camera, simply taking the pics from the other end, with the light behind the camera, would have produced a significantly better result.

PS: Hope that didn't come across as a curt response, it wasn't meant to.

Goodo - best get over there to take a good pic for your portfolio - it's an exceptional piece!

Nah, perhaps a bit of frustration with what might have been.....
