The first 10 are usually rubbish as I'm trying to find myself in the frame. Plus I move too quickly so out of 5 photos 3 will be blurry.... Yes, I'm working on my skills. I'm always surprised at how many I have taken when I download them. Most quickly end up deleted. <br />Your photos are an inspiration to me and I hope someday mine can look as cool.EmSewCrazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896183158092761878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186605029090457349.post-41921586446836756512013-05-18T10:22:56.651-06:002013-05-18T10:22:56.651-06:00Thanks, I'm thinking its a keeper!Thanks, I'm thinking its a keeper!EmSewCrazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896183158092761878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186605029090457349.post-6885264482085609072013-05-18T10:22:34.578-06:002013-05-18T10:22:34.578-06:00I've had to resort to the dress form too.

I'm using MMM to try to get better taking self photographs and more comfortable in front of the camera which is why everyone is getting to enjoy crazy photos.<br /><br />Hehe about the DVDs, we have that happen on netflix a lot. It's always so funny!EmSewCrazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896183158092761878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8186605029090457349.post-38503625794964981732013-05-18T10:20:28.764-06:002013-05-18T10:20:28.764-06:00I know, it takes a long time with a timer.

But this year a friend who takes lovely photos has been taking my weekday pictures for MMM and suddenly everything looks much better (including me). If a good photographer makes something look good it won't necessarily look good in real life, but the opposite is also true! BTW I really like that leftmost photo of your dress with you walking - this one is my favourite!

I can be 100% sure that it looks good in real life (and have that confirmed by other people), but just cannot get a good photo of it. <br /><br />I think it mostly has to do with, as you say, movement vs. a still shot. I watch 99% of TV on DVD and I have lost count of the number of times I have paused a DVD and the actor has an "interesting" look on their face. They could be the most stunning person on the planet, but a pause at the wrong moment makes them look dreadful.

For me, often the fate of a garment depends on the photos. If it looks terrible in my photos then I know it is probably time for it to go...
