Hi Chuck,
Thanks for your comments. I thought the shadow contributed to a 3-D
appearance. The background is actually a folded blanket, which I use
frequently because I can shape it to present a subject as I would like it,
not as dictated by a flat surface. I agree, a table cloth would add to the
formality.
