Borrowing from Michelangelo: I saw the angel in the "wood" and carved until I set him free. What a gift your wife possesses and your photos serve her gift well.

Beautiful, the carving and your photo's. I like lightning of the second shot, it gives it a dramatic feeling.

The rule in carving holds good as to criticism, never cut with a knife what you can cut with a spoon

No criticism here though, only high praise for both the artist and photogrpaher.

Your wife is very talented Tycooder. She has done a wonderful job. Your captures of her work are also excellent. Very nice lighting brings out the beauty of her outstanding work. Thank you for showing us buddy.

Jake.
