Photo skills......

Sometimes I think I need an assistant, someone I can rely on to help me take a decent photo.
I can spend AGES taking photos.
Maybe even more time than I spend on actually making some of the things I do!
I think this was pic number 40.......
Mmmmmm....this is what happens a lot.
Maybe I should use some knitting needles like this pro.......

Experimenting....

......with some of my photo shots.
I usually set them up against a white background, but in the last few days I have done some experimenting with angles and poses etc...
So, usually I use this kind of photo as the main image (and I still have on my website)
...but for Etsy (which seems to be a little more arty) I decided to do something a little different.
This photo took me ages to get right. I was standing in front of a mirror trying to get the image sharp whilst trying to keep my other arm and the camera out of shot......It was not fun! It's a difficult thing to do - trying to keep the camera steady with one hand...And another....
Once again, this took ages.....
Where's my model when I need him?
As a matter of interest which photos do you like the best?
I would love to know, then I wouldn't have to stand in front of a mirror in such an awkward pose wondering if it was worth the effort.....
