Kim! What a great finish! I was a nervous wreck watching you change that background but it was worth it. The marriage of the colors throughout this painting? Perfect. It sure does have a mood, doesn't it?
I know there is a thread somewhere (Garth Herrick?) about perfectly porportioned photos but you have to have Photoshop. I will happily repost these directions on perfect resizing without glare if you just say the word. I just didn't want to hijack your thread without permission. I can even PM them to you. Changed my life because it allows you to take photos from an angle and avoid glare completely!
One thing I have heard is that if you use a camera with a zoom lens, back up and increase the zoom almost as much as you can. That will help avoid that fish bowl phenomenon.
Again, I loved the way this painting finished.
EDIT! Do we have the best luck or what? Right after I submitted this (one second later), there was a reply on the thread so I know which one it is that gives directions on the resizing issue. Here it is:
Removing Keystoning
Threaded Mode
