I took on the challenge of attempting to 3D model a full-sized copy of Michelangelo's colossal 'David.'
So far, he's proving to be a tough challenge as he's a very dark bronze color. Even under overcast conditions he's difficult to photograph in such a way as to clearly display the fine detailing that Michelangelo sculpted, such as the veins in his forearms, the pattern of his pubes or locks of hair, his toenails, etc. Add to this the fact that he stands on a rather tall pedestal and parts of him simply become invisible to me.
I tackled this part of the problem by purchasing a telescoping painters pole and mounting my Nikon D200 on it with a long shutter trigger cable.
Even with a 12-foot pole, I still couldn't get David's shoulders or the top of his head. There were numerous small parts of him that were difficult to catch from enough angles so those spots that look like seams or rough patches are the result of that. Add to all this that on the day I photographed him for almos
