Freeform Wire Bracelet from Sarah Thompson’s class “Wire Weaving Bracelets-Basics and Beyond” crafted by my wife. Please see insets for side views. I was recruited to take pictures of the jewelry my wife has been making for a 6 month blog challenge she has been doing where she was crafting a piece of jewelry a week from tutorials. She has just ended that challenge this past week with this bracelet. This has also been a 6 month challenge for me as I have tried to take pictures of her pieces that are as professional as possible. I have learned a few things. Things like light, color balance, shadows, the value of a dark side, and the importance of giving a true representation of color. After all, if she uses these photos to sell the jewelry, I don't want the person purchasing the piece to be mislead by what they see online because my colors are not correct. It was not until this week that I took the time to work with focus stacking software in taking pictures of the jewelry. I tend to take macro shots so as to display the wonderful detail she puts into each piece. The problem with that is the parts that are out of focus. I don't like them. I could use the photo stacking in Adobe Photoshop except I don't have Photoshop. I use Lightroom for basic developing. So I am using a trial version of a focus stacking specific software. I must say I am pleased with the early results. I am sure I need to work on my focus stacking. This was my first real attempt. I am looking forward to getting even more practice. pg9.12
