All different sizes<BR/>When I clicked on to the picture, the detail of the background material was exquisite!<BR/><BR/>I admire those dainty ruby red high heels.<BR/>They are so pretty. <BR/>Alas, my high heel days are over because I fall too easily now. Oh well, I guess that old people shoes are more serviceable, eh but how ugly some of them are!<BR/>Really nice post Eaton.<BR/>Have a good week, eh?.....Love TerryTerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08917338886406940158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334812236658181371.post-85016483642013575062009-02-11T10:36:00.000-08:002009-02-11T10:36:00.000-08:00I suggest ( if you have a problem holding the came...I suggest ( if you have a problem holding the camera steady as suggested by TuTu's Bliss above) you set something stationary up to rest your camera on if you don't have a tripod, or resting against a wall or furniture, that way it will keep you more steady. <BR/>As well, I like the first photo, but agree with you that it could be better lit. Try lighting tea lights & placing them directly behind the larger so it's out of sight, but still lending it's light. Or you could place some of those tall candles (gosh the names evades me right now) just out of the frame, because they give off the brightest light, or so I've found.<BR/>The middle one is great, but the lighting seems too bright for it to be too romantic, I think. Try dimming the lights or going with only one light source from one direction.<BR/>The last one I would suggest you block any other light sources (try at night if you don't have a blacked out room) and go with one direction of light, that way it casts a long shadow.<BR/>All three are beautiful, creative scenes, I like them.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18270666719289599529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334812236658181371.post-49511737022527737152009-02-09T22:19:00.000-08:002009-02-09T22:19:00.000-08:00Eaton..I'm probably not going to post anything in ...Eaton..I'm probably not going to post anything in time for this week..if red was the theme what is it for the week of Valentine's?

I also think you have a superb eye for arrangement - they all seem very balanced to me. I particularly like the trail of chocolates over the dress - how they start out neat and symbolic, then sort of scatter, like rose petals. Lovely!

This is soo cool!<BR/>My husband bought me a new camera..it's a Sony Cybershot. His is Sony too- so that way we can use the same cards w/rechargeables. Ocassionaly I use his, but back in the day I only used a Nikon and I took pictures like crazy. Anyway, maybe long overdue? Now, because I fiddled & diddled so much on the last post for different reasons...you may of missed the second blog? There are two pictures taken (up close as you suggested) in a fern forest...with an itty bitty (smiles) Haiku.
