Grumpy's photo instructions for Mirrors - Thanks Grumpy
« on: January 31, 2011, 09:15:54 PM »
i am not very good at explaining things, so i made a little sketch to try & make it easier,
lean the mirror against wall or something upright,get a piece of white card or whatever colour contrasts best, hold camera over card & take picture, that`s the way i do it, good luck

Just another note when taking pictures of mirrors.. after looking at some post on the web in other places:

1) Check for other reflective items in the area
2) Wear clothes when taking the picture
3) If you ignore #2, double check your proof prior to posting.  ;D
