A note to all of you that want to brush up on your digital photography skills

1. Read your camera manuals, especially sections on manual focus, aperture settings, and white balance
2. Read etsy's guidelines on how to take quality pictures
3. Build a light box

Otherwise, you will spend hours and hours with your precious camera and computer.

See the before and after pictures. Although the after picture is still a work in process, I am way happier with it.
