A good friend of mine, the one who is responsible for the Eldar MMS cover, gave me the following as a present:

A framed 45cm x 50cm (behind glass) photoshopped picture (full colour) of the Flame of Asuryan plus two Wraithships. The ships are painted by me.

One larger pic and beneath it three smaller ones.

Excellent! I'll make a pic later on...

First off - awesome gift ?:D ? I wish I knew enough about computers to do that type of thing.

As far as taking a pic of the frame, its gonna be difficult, especially with the point&shoot camera you have (at least that's what I think you have based on the reflection in the mirror). ?That being said, the main problem is that you are moving the camera during the exposure. ?

Try to secure the camera somehow. ?If you don't have a tripod, then try using a desk, book or anything to steady the camera. ?

Also, the brighter the room, the faster the shutter speed will be. ?This means that there will be less chance of camera movement during the exposure. ?Just make sure there are no light reflections on the piece.

Hope this helps,
CF

It's pretty good camera: Canon Powershot G2.

I admit I was too hasty and didn't bother setting...but thanks for the tips, I will see if coming weekend will bring a better pic.
