Photography: Once an expensive and unusual hobby. Now as common as air. With our phones we take pictures of everything. Our food, our pets, our family…, our quilts.
Well, in this week’s Throwback Thursday, I re-visit the guest post from a year and a half ago, written by photographer Joel Davidson. In this post he tells us all how to take good photos of our quilts using those ubiquitous phones.
This Throwback Thursday post is especially relevant considering our scheduled blogs for the next couple weeks: this Saturday I present my annual What I Did This Summer photographic review of our warm-weather activities here in Maine. Then next Saturday I’ll run another edition of the Finish Line with photos of completed student work and any in-progress shots I may have from the classes they were begun in.
So grab those camera phones and pick up some hints! Thanks again, Joel.
