this one has some reeds from swan lake on it so it's very textured
i couldnt get a good picture with or with out the flash and i dont really like the flash but it does help to see some of the textured surface of the painting

trying to get good pictures is hard.

i really like taking pictures and having photos of good moments but when it comes to taking a really nice photo of a painting- taking pictures is hard. i'll have some up soon but i'm not going to guarantee anything professional right now. i'm gonna have to barrow a better camera.
