Thursday

 

I thought with more light you could see the detail of this black chunky scarf, but I guess not.

Menu

breakfast: scrambled eggs with salsa toast; banana
lunch: leftover salad with sliced turkey and cheese; chips and salsa
dinner: breaded chicken cutlets, corn, fresh bread with butter; wine
I am sooo tired of blurry photos. I am going to investigate trying to take my pictures with my nicer camera and tri-pod. So far, I hate the way those look, as well, but maybe I just need to find the right spot in the house to do it.

    Have you ever used a Gorillapod tripod? You can prop it up on a table, wrap it around a tree limb, hang it upside down from a pot rack… very handy to have!

    Beth,
    That sounds interesting. I have a big clunky tripod and a small rubber one …

    All that bright light streaming through the window behind you is confusing your camera’s exposure meter….maybe you could stand with the window off to one side? Back-lighting usually requires fill-flash but that would cause havoc with the mirror reflection. Anyway, black is difficult to photograph with much detail in most cases.

    Hence my problem with photographing my outfits — I wear black soo much. I’ll figure it out. thanks.
