Nerd

My husband came home the other day, took one look at what I was doing and said, "I love you, but you're such a nerd."  We had a good laugh, because, well...he's right.  I can't deny it.  This was part of the scene that prompted his comment...

My "set"

See, I was trying to photograph some fabric I recently had printed, and I just couldn't get the right exposure.  So, I had to pull out the good old gray card.  I took a photography class about a year ago, and I just barely scratched the surface of the vast expanse of photography.  Gray cards help you to get a proper exposure on items that do not average out to "middle gray," like white fabric {Imagine me pushing my huge taped glasses up on my nose here}.  If you're interested, I can explain it to you a little better.  My husband was not interested.  It's okay.  I know I'm a nerd!

I've got some great pictures of all of my new fabric, though.  You can see them in my Etsy store if you're interested.

At least I'm a happy nerd!  Happy Thursday!
