/><br />Forget about all of the old projects that you think you should be
finishing. Pick a new project that you have been thinking about but put off
because you thought you should do the old ones first.<br /><br />If you pick
something you really want to do, you will actually start and work on it.
Challenge yourself but make sure it's something you WANT to do.<br /><br

great photos but you have <br />to wait for the right day. Where I live
it's not cloudy that often <br />and when it is, it's usually raining or
snowing. With the indoor <br />method you can take photos on any day or
night. Color casts can be <br />a problem so it's a good idea to get
familiar with a software program <br />that allows you to change the
brightness, contrast , saturation and <br />color hue. The cloudy day
method is a good option but I find I have <br />much more control over the
shadows and details by using lights. <br />That's why professional
photographers use a studio to take photos of <br />art. Natural light can
sometimes obliterate fine details because it <br />is coming from all directions
at once. By using adjustable lights <br />you can fine tune the look you
want and cause the details to show up.<br /><br />Ron Ramsey<br /><a

/>Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII<br /><br />I agree that it's hard
to find a soft light day. Professionals use color<br />corrected lights
and polarized filters on the lights for direct lighting. <br />Many use
umbrellas for soft non direct light. The lights are still color<br
/>corrected. I managed to find couple 5000°K CFL lights. from the
pictures<br />I don't think they're exactly 5000°K. I'd like to find
some 5900°K light<br />without paying an arm and leg for them. I also
use the photo cube which<br />provides a nice soft light. I prefer to use
3 lights. 2 at approximately<br />45° and one overhead slightly behind
the subject, sometimes refereed to as<br />a halo light. With the halo
light slightly behind the subject is sperated<br />from the background appears
to float. Many catalogs us that technique.<br /><br />Byron Kinnaman<br
