Carl,

You’re better than you think with a camera, the images are very telling yet, I know the beauty is much more dramatic when you can hold the wood/grips in your hands. It doesn’t take much of an angle change to see the wood’s color reaction and I’m sure if you just moved a light around the wood you could get the same holographic effect, beautiful, even the hex screws standout. That wood reminds me of tiger skin.

I’m working a pair of Bloodwood grips and they have a little magic of their own, lots of reflective gold coloring. Wood is such a beautiful mystery and worthy of anyone’s time to investigate it, much treasure is locked inside. Wood is the modern day version of the old Cracker Jax box, remember that? Always had a surprise, surprise, surprise inside.
