Re: Painting photography

I have photographed a few paintings but I used exactly the same method as Dabhand. I try to pick a bright but overcast day and lay the pictures on the ground on the North side of my house (i.e in the shade). It is best to use a tripod, if you have the right type. Make sure you get all of the picture in the frame as you can always crop a little later. You may need to increase the contrast a little in Photoshop but if you process straight away, you will have the original to compare.
