It occurred to me, after reading a pm from a new member, that folks here might want some help about how to improve a photo. Since it looks like we have some really good photogs here would anyone like to start with a pic of their own? I'll start. This was already posted a while ago. But the longer I look at it I am thinking it's a bit washed out/maybe a bit out of focus in some spots/ and other things. So, how would you do this better or differently? Attachments:

Sue, I hope this is what you wanted us to do. BTW, beautiful bracelet. I tend to overexpose my pictures because they always look dark to me on etsy if I don't. Attachments:

Michele, for me it's just the other way round. I like my pictures a tad darker, then I see them on different websites and can't believe it. FB, dA, Flickr, my shop, a different look in each one of them!

This is how it looks when I use iPoto to correct the definition, the shadows and sharpness. ;D Love it btw Attachments:

Carina, I really like how you lightened the braid. Now that I compare it to mine I can see mine was definitely on the dark side. While I might blur the bright spots on the rounds the seed beads are definitely sharper. (Maybe I should look into that i-thingie for Christmas.)
Michele, I clicked on your image and it didn't expand so I couldn't see it well enough to compare it to my pic.

Bit late....I would probably lighten just the bracelet, and possibly colour the bottom half so it's more white. Otherwise exposure and focus looks good. Nice bracelet btw
