I love those. You make it look so easy! I still want to see them on you, you know. 🙂
You know, I tried taking pics of earrings on me-self and it was just a mess. Too hard to do without an assistant. Instead I’m going to pick up a prop tomorrow that I think will help convey the sense of scale without involving any complicated camera convolutions. 🙂
So there, something new for ya’ll to look forward to.
Well, okay. It won’t be as good as your own head, but I always look forward to what you come up with. 🙂
