Sixto Lopez's chair
Dec 12, 2014 07:10:18 #
Mrs Billy's great grandfather was Sixto Lopez the secretary of the delegation sent from the Philippines to America to negotiate Philippines independence in 1898.. A short but extremely brutal conflict was fought until 1902.
Sixto was refused entry into his own country for many years as he refused to swear allegiance to the US. Sixto Lopez has a page in Wikipedia devoted to his life story. My wife's ancestral home is in Balayan Batangas and is currently undergoing extensive renovations to restore it to its former glory. It is now owned by a trust set up to oversee the restoration work.
This was the chair used by Sixto when he finally gained entry back to the land he loved

Excellent job Billy. This is a great example of what's possible with HDR. The details brought forth compared to the original are amazing. Keep up the good work.

The wood's come up very nicely and the treatment even did a good job on the haze.
