The thumbnail button/feature only works if the photo is in a DPC portfolio. From an outside website would have to make your own thumbnail version, or use a site like pBase.com which will generate the thumbnail for you from your originally uploaded file. |

It looks like a badge or fridge magnet of a dragon.
As for the image... the white background is nicely white, which is always a good thing. The shadows give it some depth. The crop is tight so that's fine. The reflections compliment the metallic-look of the item. As a product shot, it's ok. As anything else it doesnt really hold much interest for me. |

End of the handle of a cane or umbrella? Lighting looks pretty harsh -- I'd like to see it with softer diffuse lighting, which would probably give it quite a different mood. |

It's Falcor, the flying, pink, poodle-dragon from The Never Ending Story, right?

I don't know what it is but I bet I could open a bottle of beer with it.
And it doesn't look pink to me. |

It looks like a Chinese dragon, carved in cherry wood. I have many pieces of chinese furniture, and some with a very similar cut out. It could be part of an elongated end table or even on a bed frame. I have seen this design mostly on functional furniture (it looks steady and thick), but it could be a wall hanging.
Why do you ask? |

How big is it and what's it made of? I was thinking of a bottle opener too, assuming it's made of metal.

The character in the movie is (apparently) pink, not this photo. |

The suspense is over. You are all wrong (well, some of you got close--umbrella handle...) But thanks for the comments and for the tips. I agree with moodville. Not much more than a product shot at best, but i like dragons, so...
Anyway, thanks...
