A picture from the first take:
This piece was finished yesterday (Floating Silver Hearts Necklace) and the lighting doesn't quite seem right. It's blue, no? I love how the necklace looks, but the background has a slight violet tint, which is kind of pretty, but I also see all those foodblog pictures that are just so perfect, and I'm thinking "arrgh".
So you wait till the next day and out of desperation, you actually learn to adjust white balance on your camera (still not sure what that means, but seems to have improved the pics a bit) and take a new batch.
Here is a picture from the next day:
The background looks slightly better, but the pendant now has some pink tinge and the hearts don't pop like the previous pic. And this is after the resizing, cropping, and adjusting the brightness/contrast. Sigh. And of course, all the other pictures in the batch have the same issue. But as the famous southern belle vowed "Tomorrow is another day...."
