Subject: perhaps various interesting images

perhaps various interesting images These might be of interest; the first series contains more accurate ren- ditions of images I put up a few years ago. The Koran is difficult to photograph; it's small and delicate and tightly-bound. It's illuminated with gold-leaf and from the early 19th-century and as usual we're broke; I'm trying to auction it through Sotheby's or Christie's. I'm constantly amazed at the physical labor and craft that went into it. I've never felt comfortable owning it; it's a museum piece. The other three images are half-exercise/camera-testing and playing around, but they're of interest I think: http://www.asondheim.org/oldkoran1.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/oldkoran2.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/oldkoran3.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/oldkoran4.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/oldkoran5.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/oldkoran6.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/nikukohouse.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/craned.jpg http://www.asondheim.org/calvary2.bmp
