Is there a slope to that tray or is it flat? Interesting pattern the brush leaves.

Hi Ed,
No slope at all, they are indeed flat. The brush toolpath ramps down into the middle and spirals out with the last path being around the edges before ramping up out of the piece. It looks the way it does because of the way the light reflects off the surface, and the flash from the camera really enhances that effect.
Below is a pic of the same piece without the flash and the same view with it.
I always take several shots of each image both with and without flash. Then when viewing full screen on the computer I can choose the best ones and toss the rest.
Every time I take just ONE picture, it's inevitably a tad blurry, or the flash masks a part of the shot I wanted, or an area I really wanted to look good and make "pop" off the screen when viewing is just not happening.
For example the shiny face on the orange anodized piece to the right literally grabs your immediate attention when viewing.
This photo is going on my website for sure!
Here's an example of what I was talking about above.
No flash on this pic.
Same pic with flash.
Best Regards,
Russ
