Dear Matt; The photos are preatty nice. But I have some comments about them: 1. I miss some reference scale; 2. You are wright about the lightning. If you culd have amore homogeneous source of light it will be better; 3. You have some problem with the animal position in some photos. Like photo 21 is perfect (in my opinion), but photo 27 the animal do not seems to be centered; 4. I didnt follow how are you holding the camera. Is it fixed in some tripod in a specific distance? 5. The level of the camera in some lateral view photos seems to have an undesired view of both dorsal part and lateral part of the specimen. This could be solved by placing a removable mark in the uppermost part of the animal. While you keep seeing this mark in the photo, you are still having this undesired mixture of both lateral and dorsal view. I hope this comments will help you. Cheers. Ernesto. 2008/2/25, morphmet <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>>: -------- Original Message -------- Subject: photos for analysis Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2008 12:02:39 -0800 (PST) From: Matt Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Hi folks, Thanks so much for the advice on using a copy stand - I had pieced together some other contraption that wasn't nearly as nice. I took a few pictures this weekend and I was hoping to receive some feedback / critical evaluation on their appropriateness. Would these work for shape and size analysis? Is anything missing? Does the lighting need to be more even? Are the angles okay? Etc., etc. Again, thanks in advance, you all are great! http://www.zoo.ufl.edu/madsmith/index/Photos.html -Matt ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
