Photos from my iPhone 3GS are snappy, but not always exact in either color or shape. I want to enter my art in shows, and I have to send pictures of my work.  So I've been learning -- slowly! -- how to take better photos. Shades of Dr. Peterson, my photojournalism professor at Ohio State! I still hear him insisting that pushing the button is NOT what taking photos is all about. It's the preparation. Background, distance, lighting ... Shoot That Quilt is a good introduction, and I'm taking photographing your quilts with Janice Baehr at Quilt University online at the end of September.
