That is beautiful. The top looks like a scarab bettle under the sand, in a good way...

I'm seeing a face on that top!
What's with all the faces in wood these days?

Looks great Peter!

Is it the guy with the dark circles under his eyes, wearing a sound hole on his head, or the guy with the big eyebrows and the beard, just above the sound hole?

Don, All those years of looking at wood, it starts to look back at you.

I talk to wood. Maybe that's why I hear voices.

Awsome wood Peter. Sweet rosette too.

Very interesting top indeed. I see an opossum just under the soundhole.

A possum?  No way!  Thats a beaver sticking his head out of the ripply water!

Also looks like the Cheshire Cat from "Alice in Wonderland", with his fat belly in curled redwood stripes.
