Here is a Sterling Silver Sedona Pen done with Black Roses and white Doves.

I have had a hell of a time photographing it, this was the best I got :frown:

Thank you Everyone for your support means the world to me :)

Stunning pen! A great example of why I do not like my wife viewing this site … one look at this pen and instantly my 'gifts' to her would be met with far less enthusiasm!

That is a gorgeous piece of functional ART, Toni.

May I say, "but" . . . personally, I'd rather enjoy the black rose without the dove. While they are both quite beautiful, I think the image of the dove takes a bit away from the stunning beauty of the black rose patterning - IMHO.

I would like to see the Dove with a different, simpler pattern.

My favorite tubes! And I think the doves are an essential part of the composition. They add just enough color and variety.

Something funny's going on with the photos, however. The finial looks like it shrank! (or is it shrunk?)

Yikes...!:eek: I may have to swallow my own words about this one...!

I'm not a bit surprised that you had so much difficulty in getting the right pictures, I don't think any camera know how to look at it, and to be quite honnest, neither do I...!:eek::wink::biggrin:

I know art, when I see it and that one fits right in...!

Congrats...!

Cheers

Wait till I get it under my camera :) "You have not seen nothing yet" comes to mind :)

I can't help but to think of what a stunning contrast that would be with one red or pink rose among all the black roses.

See above remark about 'You have not seen it under my camera yet :)

Definitely a work of art. I have looked at so many low quality imitations that it's just unreal and definitely not even in the same ball park when it come to class.

The Sterling kit was definitely the right choice for this one!


HDR would help somewhat on the photo, at least it'd keep the finial from 'washing out' of the exposure...but the time to create smoething so beautiful can never be captured. Unless you've done it in clay.


WOW!
