Really beautiful with great detail and a great perspective. Just curious how you get the white background - do you photoshop the background out or do you shoot against a white board? Thanks. #1498159Susan M. Smith November 13, 2012
Thank you Marcy! I've been sitting on this one for awhile not sure whether to enter it or not! Yes, I do use a whiteboard. It eliminates any unwanted background distractions and it's easy to select in my software to brighten it, change color or add textures. Plus, I'm not that good at cloning stuff out of pics so this is easier :) #10417502Marcy B. Reman November 13, 2012
Great advice -thanks! I'm not that good at cloning either and I certainly don't have the patience for it. Your way is much easier and smarter. #10417531Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
