My camera is on a tripod ( good investment)<br>In the free Microsoft picture manager tool that is on my computer I select "enhance color"<br>An icon appears that I place over the white paper and click. It tells the program that it should be white so it takes out all the pink in the photo. Then I crop everything out in picture manager and hit "enhance photo" that should bring everything very close to actual painting. I have Adobe photoshop but the free program is better.<br><br><br></div>*************************************************************************** <br>Artist website : <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank"
