I know I need a new camera but can't decide between a point and shoot (I nearly always have my old Sony in my jeans pocket) and a double the price/quality version. Probably should go with the latter for studio shots and just keep the Sony for g-kid shots.<BR/><BR/>I love detail shots because I generally go around a gallery leaving nose prints on paintings that interest me... and I suspect you guys do as well. BTW, the marks were made with two instruments... a splayed chip brush for the lighter ones and the edge of a piece of corrugated cardboard. I use only the best materials!Karen Jacobshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01316270072956883280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17649128.post-92042999478145825462007-12-14T18:42:00.000-06:002007-12-14T18:42:00.000-06:00I'm not paying attention!

I guess this piece is different looking, feels very in my face and up close. I keep wanting to see more, like push it back. <BR/>the colors are wonderful, and i think daphne was right on!phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10669096127325145722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17649128.post-23311373343079887262007-12-14T18:40:00.000-06:002007-12-14T18:40:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10669096127325145722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17649128.post-19831119009995405412007-12-14T18:34:00.000-06:002007-12-14T18:34:00.000-06:00great detail........not long ago I went out and bo...great detail........not long ago I went out and bought a monopod/unipod....lots easier than lugging out the who tripod that I always have a time getting set on uneven grass/lawn anyway. It keeps the camera steady. I have IS on the little camera and it really helps that one as the smaller the camera, the more you seem to move it when taking the pic.CMChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05946336431994312623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17649128.post-57863187408284133192007-12-14T10:47:00.000-06:002007-12-14T10:47:00.000-06:00Sorry Karen that was me.Sorry Karen that was me.Jacie Wiggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16630533748221698968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17649128.post-12356302543996051402007-12-14T10:45:00.000-06:002007-12-14T10:45:00.000-06:00Oh, that totally does it for me!

The indigo works well!<BR/><BR/>When I take pictures of my work, I often turn off the lights in the room and use the flash, then I work it in photoshop until it looks like the real thing.

I love that - is it writing/is it not markmaking. The colours glow even more. What you probably need is a tripod if it's jiggling that is the problem. Treat yourself. Or, as it is the traditional season for giftgiving, get someone else to treat you!Olga Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10554469124546960971noreply@blogger.com
