Somebody recently posted a link to their website where there was a wonderful
article on building a softbox (using foamboard, I believe) and tips on
photographing pottery. Well, I cruised through the site, meaning to come back
later, somehow didn't bookmark it, and have also apparently "trashed" the
original post (quick trigger finger ). Could someone please re-post the url?
I do appreciate it!

bloom-time is over.

"It is time for potters to claim their proper field. Pottery in its pure
form relies neither on sculptural additions nor on pictorial decorations.
but on the counterpoint of form, design, colour, texture and the quality
of the material, all directed to a function." Michael Cardew in "Pioneer
Pottery"
