Howdy folks,

I thought I would submit this for those who are interested.

Photographing Your Work - A Tutorial

A couple of tips apply mostly to larger pieces but overall the tutorial is very applicable to pen photography (or any product photography, for that matter).

Hope you find it useful.

Neal, you found me! You need to stick around and post over here! We are a good group of folks that do some pretty amazing work! Good to see you!
 
Thank you for the nice tutorial Neal.


By the way, there's usually FOUR seasons in the year, unless you're like me and despise winter so much that you do not include it..:wink:

Excellent tutorial. I especially liked how you walked us thru how to edit the image. That is one of the best simple guides to photo-enhancement in PhotoShop (Gimp) that I've seen in a while.

Bookmarked for future reference,

Steve
 
Thanks for the comments folks. Glad you found it useful.

LOL! I'm just the opposite. My lathe gets ignored during summer in Texas. Sweat and sawdust don't mix for me. :wink:

JUST IN TIME FOR THE PHOTO CONTEST!

Come on guys, get your photos taken and submitted! You may vrey well win!
 
This is a very good tutorial. I like how it (unlike most others) speaks about composition and lighting instead of exposure and depth-of-field. It covers basic photo editing clearly, but remember that the better your original picture is, the less manipulation it will need.

Well done!
 
Nice job .. it gets into some important procedures without overwhelming or
talking down to the reader. (That's no easy feat for complex subjects!)
 
I'm sorry to hear that, chriselle. I know I get frequent Safari users on my site (it's the third most frequent browser according to my hit stats) so I'm not sure what the trouble may be. If I run across anything I'll let you know.
 
Great info on the tutorial. Its easy to read and doesn't have a lot of technical jargon that I don't know anyhow. Thanks, Neal and welcome.

Exactly what I was thinking. Very good info there and enough dry humor to keep you reading.
 
Chris,
Try to update maybe? I'm on Safari 3.2.1 on a Mac and it came up fine.
Trying to help,
Dale
