Absolutely lovely guys! But here's s simple solution for reflection problems: Always scan or photograph your art BEFORE you get them framed. : )

This is going to date us, but this was framed and hung on the wall in the 1980s before the advent of affordable flat-bed scanners. We got it when the Mac was unveiled and you could buy a whole 8mb of ram for your computer! :-)

Also, Sometimes if you take a picture at a slight angle instead of straight on, reflections and glares will disappear. Congrats on a McGinnis piece his art is beyond awesome.
