And your suggestion worked again!!! Here's the Actaea pachypoda.

Ta Da!!! It would have been nice if I could have photographed them when they were all white and plump but oh well.

They sorta look like little sheep grazing in #21.
You're focused now......They lost their fuzz.
Way better.

Good work Equilibrium. Those colored papers actually seem kind of neutral or pastel-ly. A more solid color could give the object a color cast, but you have chosen wisely.

The choice was accidental. I was trying to go for that 18% gray you posted. I got as close as I could. I took those photos in natural light from my window. Look at the difference in the colors based on whether the sun was shining or partially covered by clouds. Pretty wild, eh?
