Here's what I do to photograph an album cover: Take the album into a well-lit room (my downstairs bathroom does it well) and take picture without using the flash.Those high-gloss covers can be a real bitch.Ben Centuryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11615191651939269589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35424944.post-25664513001332293762011-02-17T21:15:40.839-06:002011-02-17T21:15:40.839-06:00Now I'm curious: What would a "shut-ins s...Now I'm curious: What would a "shut-ins show" consist of? <br /><br />I did find out that there is a not-for-profit organization here in Winnipeg that "[reaches] out to community shut-ins through friendly phone calls". Maybe it was an inversion of sorts to the talk radio concept: you don't call the host, the host calls you for a nice little chat. That would be very CJOB-ish. Who knows.<br /><br />I have a little mischief to confess to in regard to CJOB. Back in my early teens, a few years before Caller ID came along, I pulled a little prank on the station. I called in to one of their talk shows -- I think Maureen Scurfield might have been the host -- waited patiently to be put through, and was finally on air.<br /><br />It was time to put my little plot into action.<br /><br />"Hi, I just wanted to talk about..."<br /><br />(Pause to draw some air into my throat)<br /><br />"*BELCH!*"<br /><br />I then hung up the phone and turned up the radio, just in time to hear my act of coarse teenager conduct come out loud and clear through CJOB's 50-kilowatt transmitter, blasting into homes, offices and cars all over Winnipeg and a 150-mile radius. (This was, of course, followed by a good scolding by the host, and much laughter at my end of the line.)<br /><br />Maureen, if you're reading this: I'm sorry!The View from Sevenhttp://theviewfromseven.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
