[Woodcarver] taking photos (Marcia Berkall)

[Dave Andreychek]

Friends,

For photos on the cheep, I spent 57 cents at Wally-World (what my son calls 
Wal-Mart),  and bought a light blue on one side and dark blue on the other 
side poster board.  I layed it on a chair - it'll stay put when a carving is 
placed on the chair, taking care not to crease it but have it gradually 
sloped.  Then lights may be setup around it, but I just use my flash camera 
on a tripod.  I found that when the carving is placed away from the 
background, no shadow shows in the picture.  I have used a single poster 
board for several years now with adequate luck, BUT, my goal is to place 
pictures on the web.

Just my cheep 2 cents worth.

Dave
