Camera Woes

Tuesday, July 15, 2008

Well, now...lately I have been reading about knitting and admiring pictures of knitting more than I have actually been knitting. Only one well-known website is to blame for my distraction, but I won't name names. Btw, please notice my new Ravelry button to the right of the page :)

So, yes, my computer broke. Just stopped working altogether. But now it's back in my possession. During the few days I did without, I tried to use my husband's computer to edit the color and brightness of some of the photos around here. His color settings are obviously way different from mine, though, because viewing said photos on my own screen just makes them look worse. I've been using his 6 megapixel camera to shoot my photos, but they just never come out right. The color is always awful. We tried all the different settings, but no dice. That camera must be on its last legs. Anyhow, I shot a couple of photos with my 2 megapixel cell phone camera which I will proudly display now:

1.) Beautiful Asherton Reversible Scarf
























2.) Felted and lined Cleo Clutch
















and 3.) The beginnings of Monkey















Up until now, my stash and needles, etc., have been stored in whatever bag seemed fit at the time. My collection keeps growing though, and I needed to find additional space for the aforementioned items along with FO's. So......now everything is neatly organzied to a 3 drawer storage container in the spare bedroom. Of course, there are pics of that, too:





























The floor space in the spare room is perfect for blocking and sewing also. It seems likely that I'll need additional storage space in the near future..but this works for now.
