I believe that there has been an over-reaction to this simple article about taking a few shots for your projects with a digital camera. This is NOT trying to build a Hepplewhite chair in an afternoon. FWW is the best working mags with layouts/photographs. I do not believe that they have a layout designer for furniture photos as does their sister publication Fine Cooking (my other hobby and passion)has on staff. I am a serious weekend photographer. Today with a digital camera, a few lights, a large white background and photshop, most woodworkers can take the appropriate shots to accompany an article submitted for woodworking publications. They are not taking shots that will appear in Architectural Digset or a "Coffee Table Book". They will have professional photographers to do their shots. Taking a photograph for Architectural Digset is the Hepplewhite chair comparison.
