Heb Z,

I use a piece of raw silk for my photo backgrounds for four reasons :

1. Folks always know the gun or holster is mine because it is on my signature piece of fabric I have used for 4 years now on the forum.

2. It eliminates the possibility of any glare from a hard back ground surface making its way into the photo.

3. Mine is a natural light brown color, as well; as I think it is a tasteful background to the colors on a luger.

4. I can color-correct the photo with eidting software so I get the color of the fabric just right. When I do this, the color of the luger is as close to reality as possible.
