Mikes 70 DONE
#46

Yes, I will try to do it tonight.
I was handling it a bit so I need to wipe all that smear off of it first.
BTW how do you clean these things? Pledge? Or what?
#47

Well, sorry guys, I could not make a good shot of it tonight. The radio is in a room with extremely high ceiling so indirect flash renders the radio almost black, and direct one obviously makes a contrast picture of it with a lot of reflections.
I will try to photograph it in the morning sun light as it is also indirect - my windows are facing north.
#48

Still no good shots. The room just won't lend itself to photographing this shade without proper lighting equipment. And direct flash gives lots of glare.

Anyways, here's what I got - does not do it justice but gives you some idea.

Those walls are very clean, Icon_lol

I'm glad you didn't bring me any consoles. From what I can see, they need some work on top. Icon_twisted

They do, thanks for reminding me! Now that you made me take away that 16 you have a space for one of mine. Icon_mrgreenIcon_lol

Well, they had top problems before having cathedrals on top.

Thanks Steve,
The hand crafted molding was the hard part, Icon_lol
