More pictures.

First off, congratulations to all of the Registry and Journal Award winners for 2007. I've gotten many hours of enjoyment and plenty of information by looking at registry sets, and reading journal articles.

I'll have more thoughts on some of the new journal articles that have been posted in a day or two, but right now I'm experimenting a little more with my digital cam. So this journal article is another request for feedback on the attached picture.

While I have been satisfied with the pictures I've taken, I feel there is always room for improvement. So this afternoon I've taken a few more pics, trying to get photos that will show the luster better. But it seems I'm losing sharpness in the process, and I don't think that's very acceptable to me. So, would you all look at the attached pic, and give me your thoughts as to luster versus sharpness.

Thanks in advance.
