I was trying to get a few good photos of some pots to post on the website, but it wasn't as easy as it sounds. The pots were reflecting the background, the sky, me... One after another I placed them on the fence post (the finest of pottery photos must include a fence post, right?), and one after another I had bad pictures!
There's so much reflection on this pot that it's hard to tell what the glaze looks like! I'm sure a class on photography, or even a book on the subject would be money well spent. (but for the time being - I'll keep experimenting)Then I turned around to check on this sweet little guy that had been so patient as mom was trying to get something done and i realized that my camera had been pointed in the wrong direction.
This is what I should be taking pictures of!
He was quite tired, so we don't have any smiles, but sweet just the same.

Hey Michele, Thanks for the web link, I look forward to checking that out!
ReplyDeleteAwww, yes you were certainly aiming the camera the wrong way. He's such a doll!
ReplyDeleteWanted to let you know I received the mug. And have to admit it sat here unopened a couple of days because my DH and I both just assumed it was a camper part we ordered. It wasn't until the real part arrived that we even looked in the box. LOL. I absolutely LOVE it. Thank you so much, you really didn't have to do that. :)
Even tired, Wyatt looks adorable! Your pots are as pretty as Wyatt's blue eyes :-)
