Photography frustration

I'm ALWAYS amazed and a bit frustrated (however, frustration is probably a strongly inaccurate description--I've been watching "Cosmos" so let's get real here...) when I try to share photos of my knitting.  The colors are never true, and here's an excellent example:  The color of the yarn is dusty/old rose, a delicate pale pink.  My first shot was on the counter with a fluorescent light overhead, and morning sunshine.  The second is sunlight through the window. And the third is at the window but from a 90º angle to number two.  None of them do it justice...







































So I tried other backgrounds, with the same strange results. 
The next two are on a pale lavender blocking pad.  
Sunlight light through the window:
Fluorescent light: (The background changes, too.)


 Then on an off-white linen towel, fluorescent light:
 At the window:


Don't believe anything you see!

Memory Full

A few days ago, I called a friend.  Her message machine picked up but when I waited to leave a message I heard this:  Memory full.
I bet I'll be able to use those two words someday:  Sorry, memory full!

Meanwhile, if you have the time, check out these photos.  I bet you can't look at just one!
Note: I didn't know that Great Blue Herons actually pierce their fish when they are... fishing. I guess I imagined them picking the fish out of the water like using chop sticks!
