Natuurlik was ek nuuskierig nadat jy die webadres vir my gegee het vanoggend en toe ontdek ek die mooie fotos van jou ma - en sy is mos 'n mooi vrou! Jy is uiters talentvol. In die toekoms gaan ek die website gereeld besoek. Anna-bè Coetzee Nuwerus

Catherine,

The most important part to get a picture like this is to awitch the flash OFF and keep the camera STILL. Here I braced the camera on a chair, and made a minus 1/3 stop exposure adjustment...

i own G9 but i doubt it is able to take such beautiful picture.. do you use manual settings?

This picture tells a full story - the polished yellow and red copper, the crocheted doily... the last of an era of people that grew up during the depression.

Thank You Riana - You are hitting the nail on the head. After your comment I look at my Mother with new eyes - and think back at the sacrifices that she made in her life to raise us four kids...

Hierdie foto vertel 'n hele storie- die geel en rooi blinkgevryfde koper, die gehekelde lappie... die laaste van 'n era mense wat in die depressie grootgeword het.
