Sharon, I am trying to fathom quail eggs for a reasonable price. I am lucky to be able to get them for free, I have seen them for sale for more then $1 a piece. They are a convenient size when baking as well when you think a recipe would benefit form a little more egg. I am sure all of the topics will help me and be of interest. I struggle with both those topics. Especially the artificial lights in the winter as al our meals are after dark. I am using a DSLR that my DH recently got me and these still apply. -Robin

I've been threatening to take a photography class, but no one gives a class way out where I live! This is SOOOOO perfect and completely addresses my needs! Sharon, you are so patient and so amazing! I feel like you're talking directly to me in terms I can totally understand. I am very grateful. I cannot wait to put it into practice!

Oh thank you loves2cook. It's good to hear that these little postings can be of help. There are some wonderful books and blogs on food photography, some more technical than others, and certainly better than what I write here. I'm trying to keep it simple for now, and haven't mentioned words like aperture, shutter speed, ISO, so as not to frighten anyone LOL....at least not yet! SharonCb

Time for this to go down the page. I hope you will enjoy making and trying out the light box. Next one will be up in a couple of days all going well as we have plumbers working in our house so there may be a slight delay. This one is more about MACRO (close-ups), SUPER MACRO and the meaning of all those camera ICONS. See you in a day or two over in The Gallery. :-) SharonCb
