just lovely - looks like it's being unwrapped.
The black bkgd - was done in post?

Actually the hubby took these, and were done in broad daylight, no flash, and yes, adjusted levels to get the background black is all. He uses different angles to get the darkest, and deepest, background possible, to start with.

Great shots! The bark and details really pop. :)

Really nice, and interesting the way it peels away like that.

Love the detail.
