Week Thirty-nine
I had the rainbow-y backdrop set up for my Dal House photo challenge picture, and Alphie wanted a turn. I am still figuring out lighting with the new camera, and this session's pictures were mostly a fail in terms of crisp and accurate colors... sigh...
The background is a very fun piece of scrapbook paper.

He's cute.
What's your white balance set on?
Sometimes they struggle in low light and the photos aren't crisp.

Great side-eye ex-pression! Why is he looking so guilty?

I quite like the background. It’s playful.

The rainbow background is nice, and he looks vaguely guilty about something there too.

It's on whatever the auto setting is, and I'm not really sure how to change that... I did manage to find the instruction manual online, but haven't really gotten the chance to read through it properly... and I readily admit to being not-very-fluent in camera!
And now I'm three weeks behind, because life. Ugh. I had some time yesterday to fool around with dolls and the camera a bit, but my indoor pictures are still pretty disappointing. Thankfully the outdoor ones come out OK-ish, and the weather was decent.

The one with the flowers is lovely, I also like the pumpkin shot.

Such a fun, autumnal set of pics!
For indoor photos, you need a lot of light. No way around it. Get a cheap desk lamp at Walmart, five or six bucks. That's what I use. They work great.

Lots of fall colours there. I like the outfit with the cute brown jacket.
Auto white balance should be OK. There should be a button for "WB" that you could push to get a menu, but, I almost always use either auto or daylight. Could've been just the low-light setting. Sometimes mine will change the colour cast on 2 consecutive photos even though I haven't changed any settings.

The shot with the pumpkin is neat.
And the others are nice too.

Week forty-three
The only picture I got to take today before my camera died and I discovered I'm out of batteries...
