Like I said, no offense intended. Photos are important, and its not that difficult to get a decent one. Maybe about as hard as forging a nice fishtail scroll. And once you get into the habit...
Photography is the #1 mistake made by people attempting to make a go of a career in the arts. I am 100% guilty and wish I wasn't. What I really would like is some good shots of my early raw work when I didn't know any rules or techniques. Live and learn.
Criticism is O.K., even if its a little tangent to the original discussion or author, who may not care.
Nice table, very marketable.
