how does one go about taking a good pic of tattoos. my friend and took a whole roll of film of our ink. not one came out really good... ok we did use a little 35m camera... but from now i'll use my old faithful 35m with me focusing instead of the camera doing it.
...but any ideas... backdrops? lighting? where? flash no flash...

thanks

    I use a digital camera, but I have had the artist take photos indoors with a "covered" flash. If you take them outside, its best to do it early morning or late afternoon. You want to avoid direct sun, it will cause harch contrast.....

    just my thoughts......
