Lights! Camera!
Among some of the cool things that my dear SO gave me this year was a golf bag and a Swiss Army backpack...
and this:

Smith Victor - ImageMaker Light Tent Kit
So I had to try it out...

Socks That Rock Moss Agate

Early Spring cuff detail

SO's socks in LL Mineshaft

We're ready for our closeup Mr. DeMille.
I saw that Marnie got a similar one the other day, and I agree with her completely. Having the colors come out even close to correct is so nice. That photo of the STR yarn is something I wouldn't have been able to achieve without natural light... if even. The LL Mineshaft didn't turn out exactly true to color, but I should have used a different backdrop. Now I need to introduce the backdrop to the steamer and figure out how to adjust for LCD vs. CRT. To me, the photos look richer on a CRT. Isn't there always something?
Anyway, I'm one happy camper. The jacket's going back into the closet.

Ooh, nice gift! Maybe if you add a grey card, you can mess with the exposure some to correct any colors that still resist correct color reproduction!
Merry Xmas from Florida!
