Uploading this to etsy (shameless self-promotion: http://www.etsy.com/listing/73178509/bright-as-a-button-necklace ), bonus earrings and all, meant that I've met all three of my New Year's resolutions for the fourth month running. That's some kind of record or something.
My first photos came out badly as the light wasn't wonderful and, as I discovered some time later, my camera was set to ISO 1600 for no good reason whatsoever. I had to re-take these under artificial lighting. I used my craft light as it gives a more accurate colour and used several reference items in the pictures (some later cropped out) to ensure that the colours were accurate. I prefer using no colour editing, but given insufficient light it's not really going to work. And to wait for tomorrow was to fail in meeting my resolution. And that just wouldn't do.
I should be faster at meeting that particular one next month as I have a few things ready to go that I'll wait for natural light to photograph.
