I am still playing with settings on photos etc... but for now take the best possible pic in daylight without direct sunlight ... connect camera to the computer with usb and download pics into a file ... then you can decide what you want to do/show/publish the pics of your artwork.<br />I use either Picasa or Photoshop Elements but if you take a well lit pic that's enough to start with - and I enjoy seeing pics of artwork in their work environment for perspective.<br />I think you should apply to the SBA Distance Course - what can you lose? You can gain an awful lot.<br />The contraption is called a 'third hand' (we all need one of those) and you can find it here <br />http://www.amazon.co.uk/THIRD-MAGNIFIER-MODEL-MAKING-JEWELLERY/dp/B00439IJH0<br />Thank you for your nice comments!Vicki Lee Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10409588969370991946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422540183514440215.post-87562123257087087492012-03-15T20:30:58.813-07:002012-03-15T20:30:58.813-07:00So excited to find this blog which has led me to o...So excited to find this blog which has led me to others. Feel like I'm home at last. Very interested in the topic of photographing/scanning artwork as I have had little success in true representation of my work. Also what is that fascinating contraption you are using to hold specimen and where could I access. Your work is beautiful. I have been on the verge of applying to do SBA Distance but am too scared! I haven't yet worked out how to upload photos! duh!Leda Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16668092861875805062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422540183514440215.post-68823907042619960102012-02-01T19:56:51.146-08:002012-02-01T19:56:51.146-08:00Thanks so much Hedera - happy to complete it!Thanks so much Hedera - happy to complete it!Vicki Lee Johnstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10409588969370991946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-422540183514440215.post-69027034434743263912012-01-25T22:14:35.528-08:002012-01-25T22:14:35.528-08:00Wonderful subject Vicki - gorgeous detailing.
