I would recomend GorillaPod - The Flexible Camera Tripod by JOBY - you can find them on the net from $15 - $20 and then use your timer

if the camera has a timer, you get much better photos, but in due time - I really am enjoying watching what you are doing with the horse eye

project - very impressive,

I spent the weekend in East Texas, little town I spent many years in back in the day. Only 1000 folks live there so its not that small but

it has a great community spirit - but what I saw a whole of were the younger girls were wearing ring watches, in all kind of designs. I dont know

why that caught my eye - but it did and after that I started looking for them on hands.. lol - So I can see what you are trying to do if I follow along.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks Don, and I appreciate you following the 'progress' which I hope there has been some :-) I don't think my camera has a timer. It's a digital vivitar and I've had it for years but it still works good for some thing :-) Cheryl

A gorilla pod may be good for some things but in her case i think a regular tripod would work alot better.

I don't even know what a flexible one is so I think you're right John. At least I know what the LOOK like, LOL. Cheryl

Use the "Macro" setting if your camera has one (represented usually by a small pic of a tulip) and better lighting.

The blur comes from not using the flash combined with not being steady.

Try resting on your wrists or elbows.

Good luck.

Thanks Kevin. You hit the nail on the head with the steady part. I can take better pictures from a few feet away and I always find something to lean on and put my Hands on to do it. Bur I had to use my hand to keep the watch open on this (which of course you can't tell because i had to use m y hand.......LOL) Cheryl
