Default My First Post! Can I get your input?

Hello! I've been reading your posts and learning from all of you for quite a while now, and this is my first post. I'm learning how to take photos of my beads and I've attached one that has a particular problem that I can't seem to remedy and I was wondering if any of you had a suggestion for me! I can't get rid of the bright "window" shine on my beads. -- The top part of this photo shows the light shine and it's driving me nuts. I have the table top bead photo studio set up. Thanks for your suggestions!!!!

Move your lights farther away if you can. You can also try moving them more forward and the bead more backward. I'm assuming you are using a diffuser, right?

Honestly, I don't mind the highlights that much.

....move... lights....back....brilliant! Thanks. I feel like smacking my forehead (as in why didn't I think of that). And, I'm using a light tent, but no diffuser -- I don't think. What is a diffuser?

Thanks Cosmo!
