Another picture of bowls.

Tom,
The bowls are beautiful. The large vessel in the middle, imho, would look a little better with a little more taper towards the base, much like the one on the right. What kind of wood for the other pieces and what is the finish?
 
The back row from left to right is, mulberry, mulberry, mesquite, and juniper. I would have liked to have tapered the middle vase more but it was a short piece to start with and the bottom was right next to the chuck so I didn't have much room to work with and I didn't want to make it any shorter. Thanks for your comment, it seems that most of the comments are of the "Mutual admiration society" type.
The finish I used was Min-Wax poly wipe on, gloss.
