We are in the middle of moving 10,000 objects into a new storage facility and are using the opportunity to digitally photograph this part of the collection.  We are currently working on ceramics and glass, with silver on deck.  Slow shutter speeds, overhead lights off, and pointing the photo lights to the ceiling does not seem to have eliminated the light reflection. Do any of you have suggestions on how to best photograph objects with a high glaze or reflective curves?
