I have a moment.

Now that I have stopped banging my head against the keyboard creating a website I finally have the time to pursue writing posts. Much more enjoyable than code, columns, and photography.  So here is my first post!

Let’s start with photography.  I am mildly competent with a camera, but glass is really difficult to photograph well.  I have been fired by a couple photographers over this problem, so I have been learning to shoot my own work. This is a work in progress, a slow, repetitive process, starting with the shooting setup, and through post processing. Adobe Lightroom, and Photoshop are always on my start bar.

I am not aiming for true “product shots”, in all honesty this is over my pay grade. I am trying to represent the color of the glass object in hand as accurately as possible on my screen.  I have no control past that one screen.  Hence, I  resort to verbal descriptions, using the names of the colors as a starting point.  These names are from the manufacturer, and not always as informative as I would like.   If you have questions about a specific color or combination of colors, please feel free to contact me.  I will be happy to work on a more specific color information with you.
