Can anybody explain what causes the sort of ghost image on some woods that I see when I've finished them? This longwood pen seems to have it- you can see what looks almost like a faint image on the top layer of the wood, that doesn't match the grain underneath, and is actually almost the opposite of the wood. I think it looks pretty neat, but I just don't understand where it comes from? (I'm sure there's probably some long word to name it!)
