If camera completely automatic point the camera lens to the floor (or other spot darker than where the tree is) and depress the shutter button part way to 'focus' then point it at the tree with button still partly depressed. By looking at your view screen you will have an idea of what the final photo will be re brightness/contrast/colour before you depress the button the rest of the way to take the photo. I 'trick' my auto setting quite a lot this way. Experiment with distance/focus and take lots of photos but *do not* delete any until you have them on your computer screen as they look much lighter/brighter there than on a tiny camera screen and you may delete your best shot!<br />Have fun and I hope you can understand the way I've written this.<br />Cheers,<br />RobynRobynLouisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08050372484207822842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-70918410337631497522011-12-05T14:05:32.076-06:002011-12-05T14:05:32.076-06:00this article should help:http://www.u-createcrafts...this article should help:http://www.u-createcrafts.com/2011/12/how-to-get-beautiful-christmas-tree.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+u-createcrafts%2FOlHW+%28Ucreate%29Kelly O.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01395316461508115484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1252320607766646025.post-4400139703294360862011-12-05T08:34:51.576-06:002011-12-05T08:34:51.576-06:00Wish I could help - if it's not food or a quil...Wish I could help - if it's not food or a quilt...
