So far I've only been using the white background of my homemade light box for my jewelry pieces, but I want my backgrounds to really work with my pieces. The white now just seems sort of drab. So I'll be experimenting this year as well.Jewelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03889087211891368208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7048147543485644472.post-18551580410096797572009-02-09T08:42:00.000-06:002009-02-09T08:42:00.000-06:00It's great that you're experimenting with backgrou...It's great that you're experimenting with backgrounds. They definitely make a huge difference, along with proper lighting. I've been working on my photo technique as well, and I've learned that black is usually too harsh. It's often better to go with a dark color, like a deep green or purple or dark blue, to get a good contrast. <BR/><BR/>Also, try experimenting with different angles in the photos. That can make a difference in how the light reflects off the piece (especially with crystals). <BR/><BR/>Good luck! I'll be on the look out for your progress...<BR/><BR/>LizThe Occasional Embellishmenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13348548453192374224noreply@blogger.com
