Thank you Vladlen,
Nice job breaking that down to ideals and illuminating the issues with lenses. I need to modify my thinking when considering how I break an object down from the macro structure to the micro scale of finer details, do a better job providing transitional shots to move from one to the other. When working on a piece of furniture like this, even a slightly converged view of the seat provides plenty of texture data, no need to shoot directly from top, especially given my imagery is 52 MP. A chair is one thing, but I try to maintain a 2 meter distance to the macro structure of cave walls when capturing environments. So much is going on in a crazy environment, model coming along nicely, but definitely need to take more photos, spending more time than should be necessary setting tie-ins.
Big thanks for your guidance!
