I'm a Florida boy...and I certainly remember his NASA days, just like John Glenn. It's their "after-life" I wish I could forget. Oh well...
Get yourself an inexpensive 36" photo tent and some daylights and shoot your knives inside of it. You'll eliminate a great deal of that brightness and eliminate a whole helluva' lot of shadowing!
Good luck, Capt. Chris
