Birch Eating Bowl- Update

I completed my Birch eating bowl today and have to admit that I'm fairly happy with the way it turned out.

I finished the outer surfaces of the bowl off so they are nice and smooth and then took some more wood out from inside the bowl as it was a bit heavy in places and then worked towards a uniform wall thickness, i left the hook knife marks on the bowl as, well i think it looks good for a start, but also being cuts, when the bowl is used the grain wont lift.
