Saturday is Studio work day. Since I had not done any photographing the opening last week, I started with the idea to film the work that is presently on display in Val Gal. I had a brand new Optex PRT50 Summit Tripod to try out first. The tripod was bought last Monday but I wanted to read the instructions and assemble it without breaking anything. So it stood carefully placed in its box in a corner of Rose Room. Saturday morning was the first time I could bring myself to even attempt it. I opened the box carefully and found no instructions. A search on line to register the tripod bore no fruit. the best I could was find it listed in the store products and sign up for the eletters on the store. It said on the box, in big letters, five year guarantee, so I suppose I have to keep the store receipt. There is no other proof of purchase.
That done I figured that I would just have to go by instinct and what I had learned to do with the other tripod. After lunch I would film the Autumn Leaves: New City. 2015 exhibit. Usually I film just on Sundays but I was behind schedule so I took Saturday to film just the artwork in the Corridor Gallery. Sunday I planned to go through the gallery again this time taking pictures of myself with the exhibit pieces.
I went downstairs and got the luggage trolley. I had a wooden folding table and the tripod fit on it quite nicely without wobbling. Last week I went to check out what was wrong with the tripod and found out the camera was broken and could not work properly with a tripod. Cameras are expensive so I really didn't relish the fact of buying a new one. Luckly my classic old Nikon Coolpix was in perfect working order at least in regards to the tripod.
I placed the camera on the tripod and the tripod on the trolley. I was a little shaky with how to use the legs which were long and had three moving pieces to adjust the height. I eventually got all three legs equal and with the camera settings on Museum I pushed the trolley down the Hallway Gallery and took a picture of each and every exhibition piece. First one side, then the other.
The pictures came out fine to begin with. I have the Sony photo app and the Windows app and with the both of them I did a fairly professional job of adjusting, straightening and cropping the images. Sony makes it easy to put the date on the pictures and I used a textbox with the Windows. to add my name. The computer adjustments are almost done and very soon the pictures will be ready to put on the social network.
I will be making some changes to some of the Corridor Gallery pieces. When new ones come in I will film them individually. Next Saturday I want to start on the Rose Studio Gallery work. Monday I am going to join Gliffy charts on Google and I will be adding some beautifully colored Art Fabio Co. organigrammes to decorate my room.à and organize my work.
