7/29/2008  UPDATE (additional draft photography)

The following photos were taken 7/24. Other than for some very basic

work, they have not been fully retouched.

To select the favorite ones for use at the website, please right click

on the favorites to determine the photo number, and advise me.

Thanks,

Dave

Reflections retouched:

I am n ot thrilled with the washed-out looks the below have. The lighting

was too harsh. If the images are useful for the website, I will re-shoot

these. Please advise.

Thanks,

Dave

History: Debra and Keith have been very kind in encouraging our

meditation group to meet at their wonderful shop, Maruka, in Washington, D.C.

In the course of various conversations, we hit upon the idea of photographing

some of their exotic retail products, perhaps to use as part of their developing

website, http://www.MarukaDC.com

The first photoshoot was done (Primary Collection below).

Debra has selected her favorites from the Primary Collection below.

Dave has PhotoShopped them, and they are below as the Final Collection.
