You can beat mother nature by photgraphing the results as expertly as this. My slight ngigle is that the highlight is very slightly burned out. Its fixable.

David,

Many thanks - your praise is hard-won, so it is valued all the more. Noted re the highlight - I tried a number of versions, and thought that perhaps I was better off treating it as a specular highlight.

Thanks again.
