Very nice! Can you recommend a book or online tutorial (preferably) or something where I could learn to wrap like that?
Thanks! Phil

Honestly, I have looked at a bunch of them online, and I learned from Randy, right here on RTH. It really is the best to work from, detailed instructions, and pictures for you to look at for every step of a wrap. After I figured out the basic concept of his style, I just went from there. His Tut is in the wire wrapping section, you should look it over!! Thanks! Marie

Just a suggestion, if you have a desk lamp, tape a cheap paper towel over the light, then place that as close as you can to your work but out of the picture frame, then when you shoot your photo you should be able to get better color and none of the glare. Just a suggestion on a cheap way to do that. I use Xmas tissue paper over my single bulb desk lamp, that way I can get various colors when photographing small items. Works almost as good as a light box.
