Status: offline 		These pics are a touch fuzzy, but as I finsh up the display case.( I still need to add a top, and was thinking of translucent plexiglas to display some bottles on top,) I'll get some more pics with different lighting....This is one of two Barrister's bookcases that Mr. Fred gave  me and Lauren . I used a panel of 'dry erase' type sheet stock as a backdrop. This just happened to fit atop my bookshelf in an alcove that needed some light anyways.

Status: offline 		Well done Joe! I use a tripod for almost all my bottle close-ups. The gallon and a half of coffee coursing through my veins isn't the optimul condition for macro's. I'll also use the timer with the tripod for extreme close ups. I keep meaning to pick up one of the button things that trip the shutter but I'm a cheap ole prick sometimes
Anywho, great all around project! Nice colors and some cool bottles!

Status: offline 		Thanks Lobe!, I've got some better candidates bottlewise and colorwise, but they have their own display upstairs....I hear ya on the coffee....I've become so jaded to regular that I need super high test....The guys at the yard office won't even drink my coffee, they say it's too strong...well one will, but he's an ex-tugboat captain from New Orleans....My motto is "If the spoon won't sink,...it's just about right.                                                                     Joe

I found this unused shutter release while cleaning out drawers.
Don't know if it is the right type, but if you want it it's yours!

Status: offline 		Thank you Paul,..Fred, Lobes, Tim, and everyone who replyed...Tim,...It IS brighter in the center.... Your opinion is very welcome as it's just in the prototype stages right now...I think the menuboard plex is my solution....Looks like I'll have to go pay my old place of employment a visit...They'll probably cut me a discount on the plex....we have a small glass shop at the lumberyard but they carry a very limited stock, just basics....The light is a standard 24" undercounter flourescent....I tried a couple of more pics...Here's one with the glass front open, which helps tone down the light somewhat.

Status: offline 		Being an old home, At one time I cut a window into the stairway from the dining room, for much needed natural light into the enclosed stairs...of course this window eventually got shelves for bottles too. Here's a couple shots looking from the stairway into the dining room towards the showcase on the bookshelf, towards  the ceiling level....(whew) ...please excuse the dusty ceiling register.... I got a little creative with these...                        Joe

P.S. Mayor Tom just notified me to leave the probe in my truck tomorrow, as he may have happened on a couple well defined privy holes at an old victorian he's working on....(2nd house to stand on the lot)....We'll remain hopeful.
