: try this again. Maybe someone has some suggestions about taking a
: pic of your own hand. On the pic the stain seems to be different
: colors but the real thing is one consistent color and on the pic it
: seems to be splotched when it is not. This not to mention that the
: pic doesn't show any of the detail. I know it is the lighting and
: the perspective but I don't know how to correct this. This was
done
: with my digital.

I've found the best pictures come out when I have a design lit with
natural lighting (sunlight) but not direct light. If you can find a
generally light area of the house, try that. Also, I've found that
using a white or cream colored background also seems to bring out the
truest color of the stain - as true as it ever gets on film that is.

: the stain 45 minutes after I removed the paste. This is the color
it
: was without any steaming. I was so shocked. I had never gotten
: anything this dark immediately.

It IS a fantastic stain... what was the brand??

: I like my ring too. It is one of those old ones from the '60s that
: opens up and you can put things inside.

Ooooh a poison ring! I have one of those too, I think they're too
cool!

Hope these ideas help.
