Some rubbish lighting during that sequence depending if the camera decided to flash and the ambient light is fluorescent with a little sunlight from a window sometimes and the state of the brass (filthy at the start) The brass is a pale brass as it is cast brass picture PD1995 is cleaned brass with a (600 grit iirc) matte finish ready for silver plating pictures PD2000, PD2002 are after silvering and show a reasonable colour balance This guy has written up the process of waxing, graining and silvering http://www.davewestclocks.co.uk/silvering_clock_dials.htm My set of pictures were mainly to document a particular dial I worked on and the hole filling (rivet in new brass) and re engraving by hand (I remember doing the engraving and hole filling) Boss did the posts for the movement Two of use shared the work on the dial and I cannot remember who did the waxing and silvering Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
