Frustration!

I found myself very frustrated yesterday at my camera! I don't know how to use the stupid thing! I needed to take better pictures of my jewelry so they can be added to a catalog I am creating for home shows, the web and such!
Finally, after some screaming, fuming and yes some tears I found a site on google that explained exactly what was wrong with what I was doing! Oh! There is "White Balance" on my camera?!! What a miracle!!!!
Excited I ran outside, set up my area and began manipulating my camera and snapping photos!



They turned out Perfect! Well, at least close to it! What do you think?

  2. I have struggled with photos too. I spent Saturday helping a friend set up her etsy shop and take photos. Thank you for the tip.
    Your work is gorgeous.

  4. Your jewelry is just beautiful! I know exactly what you mean about the photos. My husband bought me a new camera for Christmas and I was so upset to see that everyone in my Holiday photos had bright white faces! After doing some research I discovered that I can adjust my exposure. What a difference!
