Hmmm. I shoot my paintings under a skylight in a bathtub "shower stall" (somewhere on the Forum I've posted a photo of this macabre system) and maybe the glossy white tiles reflecting back at me are the source of my current frustrations. I am running out to buy some black cloth.

Tom, you are a genius, if I haven't said so before.
