Ok, we have got our guitar, in our, our product, in our, in our location where we are going to be photographing it. And, of course we will wait until it stops moving before we ever try to photograph it. But, let us now look and think about the background. The background should be neutral. There is way too much going on in the background. We do not want to have poles sticking out of our instrument or whatever it is we are trying to photograph. We are going to want something that is neutral. Something that provides some contrast from the background, so that the product is the most important thing. I have created, I have put up a photographic background stand. And, most professional photographers or a lot of professional photographers, when they are in this circumstance, they will go out and buy a tube of paper called seamless backdrop paper. And, you can put that tube of paper on here and draw it down. And, the first time you use it it will not have any wrinkles in it and it will look perfectly smooth. It will create that perfectly smooth background with nothing going on. You can get the paper in all colors. Black, white, reds, greens. And, it is pretty nice and ordinarily I would use that for these kinds of things. For this kind of photo shoot. But, sometimes I just like to use cloth because it has a texture while not being obtrusive. So, I just buy cloth as I can, as I find it. Interesting cloth that is interesting. Or, nice colors. And, I will sometimes just create a drapery behind our object. That can be something as simple as that which states elegance. It is a good contrast against the background. That could be a very successful way of photographing this instrument. And, I have used nothing more than a bolt of cloth as my primary background. We can create more drama by making it look like drapery, with a couple of extra shadows. But, because this is going to be used for the web, I think I want something even simpler. I think I want something almost plain white. A sheet.
