It was mostly in dust removal and cleaning out spaces between tiny threads of the tassels that don’t come through in the sensor. Even using a micro fiber cloth on the black acrylic, there is still a massive visible amount of dust at 45 mp.

That's beautiful! May I ask, how did you set up your lighting for this shot? Paint with a flashlight? Off-camera flash? Thank you for sharing!
