My first desktop setup pic after getting the new monitor.
Can you spot it?



Fullsize version here.

No matter what I did I could not manage to get the monitor picture to come out well. It's as sharp as I can expect shooting without support, but even in this best version there is white "burnout" on the monitor. The camera is an Ixus 430. Does any photography-minded person want to explain what might be the prob? I don't really understand all the white balance etc. settings, but I tried about all of them including "custom". This best result was on automatic white balance. Flashes butchered everything in sight so after a few tries I went to no flash.

Outside is cloudy but reasonably bright. The "flame" is a reflection of my paper lamp at the back of the room.
