i keep trying to take pics of these damn corn hatchlings to sell but the pics i take always come out cr@p

the last lot looked good on the camera's screen but when i've uploaded them all the pics are really dark...........

would anyone that's good at photography and within reasonable distance of LS25 area be able to do a quick photoshoot for me please?

it should be quick too, there's only 9 of them

Wots up are they blurry...if so feed them and that will slow em down to get some good shots.

If there to bright with the flash...stand further back and zoom in.

If there to dark...stick them on the table and put a light over.


If not get them to the rep nite and im sure lewy or mart could help you out...

If you put them under a pot or tub for a while to settle down then remove the pot and it normally gives you a while to get the photo before they take off.

if you could spare the time i'd make the effort? they shouldn't get too cold on the way over (not that my heater's been working in the scoob since...........er.............last year?) ambient temp should be warm enough
