You can really see a piece clearly when it's in digital form. Like these earrings below.
Does anything jump out at you?
There's another pair exactly like this out in the world somewhere!
Don't ask me how I missed this when I mailed the earrings out. If you have a pair just like these, send me an e-mail and I'll send you the pair above free of charge. I'd rather you have two pair than two mismatched earrings!
As I said earlier, I've been taking new photographs of jewelry, and editing photos with my new Windows photo program that came with Windows 10. I'm also listing some new things on Etsy and my website that haven't seen the light of day before now. Here's a teaser:
Cleaning up photos is a full time job! I'm no photo expert, so sometimes I spend too much time trying to get the tint and light just right so the photo truly represents the colors as well as possible. Sometimes I tinker too much and the photo becomes a lost cause.
I have yet to figure out a good background for photographing light stones like Aquamarine, Light Amethyst and Rose Quartz. I like to use scrapbooking paper, but there are times even that doesn't work. I've also tried vinyl flooring, black vinyl material, real wood, ceramics, and even one of those storage boxes that looks like a book (which is what I used for the gray mismatched earrings in the first photo).
Sometimes I want to pull my hair out and give away my jewelry just so I don't have to waste another minute taking and editing photos.
And then I get a few good shots and I think maybe I'm getting the hang of it.
And then the day is over and the next time I want to photograph jewelry I have to start all over again.
Hope you have a bright and wonderful day!
