Rick:
Re taking glare off of shiny things in bright light, I remember in TV work we
used to have a product in a spray can which we used to take the really "hot
spots" off of things in scenes. This goes way back to the days of B&W TV when
we used HUGE lighting and had to literally employ folks to pull the huge heavy
camera cables. Sorry I don't recall the name of the product.
Another thot = photographers sometimes take Kleenex (sic), split the double
thickness into one, and then place the one thickness over the *flash* of the
camera. This cuts down the direct hot light just enuf (while also diffusing
it) that a lot of the objectionable hot spots caused by flash are magically
removed. BUT note = be certain to keep ze feengers outta dee picture. You
might simply think of using scissors, a small piece of Kleenex or similar,
Scotch tape, etc, etc.
Anyway, Good Luck Sir. And I hope and invite you to post your pics on the
reflector for all to celebrate!

Wow, there are really some lovely stations out there.
Only problem is, on most of them I could not recognize who they belong to.
Somebody had the idea to put up his call sign on his computer screen.
That's a good idea.
I am a failure at photography.
I have taken many pictures of my station, but can't get any of them to turn
out.
There is a huge picture window behind my station and it reflects too much.
Almost every piece of equipment I have is black, and if I turn off the
flash, you can hardly see anything.
If anyone has a tip on how to do this, I would be grateful.
