Field notes
The product uses lithophane construction rather than a flat photograph: image areas vary in thickness so backlighting recreates the picture. The page describes three family-photo panels, replaceable parts, black or white frames, and three lighting configurations. Listed prices run from AUD 65 to AUD 85, while delivery is explicitly excluded for now. A battery version is described as lasting about 7–8 hours between charges.
