My trusty old camera has been with me through thicket and thin wood. (I was just reading about the origins of the phrase 'think and thin' and thus had that on my mind while pondering this week's Flaming Hot topic. Did you know the phrase was used to describe the determined progress the animals took as they grazed through the 'thick' English countryside dating back to a time period in which the land consisted mostly of wooded pasture. It kind of paints a pleasant picture in your mind's eye, don't you think.) Anyhow, back to th topic of taking pictures. After reading Susan's thoughts, I can see I am not the only freaky bead person out there braving the elements to snap a picture. My set up is overly simple and can be seen at the very bottom of my studio page on my website. I did recently find a little table to rest everything on so it isn't sitting in my lap. I like the angle better too. I always seem to prefer the pictures that are taken down low rather than the ones from a bird's eye view. What do you think? I'd love to hear what angles you prefer and which ones are most beneficial.
Getting a good quality picture can be very taxing some days, but from now on I think I will picture myself headed down a narrow path surrounded by green foliage with a mission - the mission of colorful beads and beautiful pictures.
Ahhh....off to have a beadiful day!
