Is it areas of extinction? I don't see a big window or horrible cut or anything. Please clue me in. Thanks.

Non calibrated (will need custom setting) and a bit deep. 3. More "flaws" might become apparent if a side picture and pavilion view is seen.

Pretty deep: it would have to sit up pretty high to not have the culet hit your finger. 3. The colour looks kind of nice but I thik it would be quite dark IRL. LS
