    A little trick to quickly add some background to your miniatures photos without any special effort. Hope it is of some interest.

    That’s remarkably simple.
    Any issues with lights creating any glare or reflection on the screen/monitor?

    Mike, it is best used if you have proper daylight. You may get glare/reflection if you have lights on,  but I just move around the screen/laptop until I get a good shot. Zoom in,  autofocus and snap, then just crop the picture. I took all of these on an normal phone camera – an iPhone.

    Brilliant idea, Per – so simple, yet remarkably effective. I will definitely have to give this a try.

    That, sir, is a splendid idea and one I will certainly think about stealing/using! (delete as applicable etc )

    Have to say I didn’t expect to see you using a computer monitor when looking at the pictures. Nice job.
