Title: Bocote Call & Striker
Post by: blacky on May 31, 2011, 12:38:13 PM

I made this call for a friends grandson.

I still haven't got the picture taking down yet. I bought one of the photo tent things and it has helped some. I have a good Olympus camera but am doing something wrong. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

1- looks like your white balance is way off. try changing it and seeing what you get
2- looks like your resolution is really low and needs to be set quite a bit higher

Thanks guys.
I got the book out for my camera and discovered that I wasn't using the proper setting for this type of picture. I took a few more pictures of other calls with pictures and the look good. I am hardheaded at times.

Here is a picture of one of my Field Grade Glass Calls. I think I have my problem solved.
