Sending digital imagesYou have the options of sending them on USB stick, CD or by email.If sending on a USB stick or CD simply post to Matthew Rosser, 16 Dunnart Court, Burnside , QLD, 4560 Receipt of your files will be acknowledged. If sending by email, send to arosser@sidestoke.com. Be aware that digital image files may be very large which could cause problems. Emails which are too large may simply disappear without trace. If you know how to change the size of digital images then reduce the size of the image so that it fits into a square of 1000x1000 pixels. If you're not comfortable with image editing programs try sending just one image in an email, and wait for confirmation that it arrived. Getting photosStudio quality photos are not necessary. The best thing to do is take the photos yourself.A simple photo setup for photographing pots is described here. If used in indirect lighting this setup will produce images with manageable shadows but they may look a bit dull. No need to worry about this: I can make some simple corrections to the images to effectively correct the exposure.
