I am looking for advice from fellow potters about a camera for taking pictures of my work. I just got a light tent and have lights and a graduated drop. However, I need to upgrade from my point and shoot. I want something that doesn't require a long learning curve if possible. Any advice would be welcome!
For publication, application to high end shows, etc, I have a great professional photographer, but I can't afford him for pics to post to my blog, facebook page, and similar sites and to use in postcards for shows.

Help with cracking
Question for all you fabulous,much more experienced potters?
I love to make pieces from stoneware and then cover in porcelain
slip and make a design in wax resist and wipe away.
Does anyone know any fix-it for these little cracks that come out AFTER the bisque fire?
Does anyone know a good way to prevent them in the first place?
I am using pheonix stoneware.
Thank you, fabulous potters.

Hot Fudge Sauce
10 TBL butter, melt in medium saucepan
1/2 c cocoa powder, sift into butter and stir until smooth
1 1/2 + or - cup(s) of sugar (This takes quite a bit os sugar. I just keep adding sugar til I get the taste I want. I would start w/ at least 3/4's of a cup.)
4 squares of unsweetened chocolate
1 1/3 c evaporated milk
Add above 3 ingredients to butter mixture.
Bring to a boil while stirring constantly. Remove from heat, add 2 pinches of salt, cool and add 2 tsp vanilla.
No home should be without this.
Most of the time when I make this it is quite thick, spoons easily out of the jar that way! But sometimes it is rather thin. Can never figure it out.
Enjoy,
Suzanne Ford

Crimson Laurel Gallery opening three new exhibitions, Saturday, Sept 3rd.
On September 3rd, Crimson Laurel Gallery in Bakersville, North Carolina will open three new exhibits. Our featured exhibition is "South by Southwest: Collaborative Pottery by Jason Bohnert and Mark Knott" and our showcase exhibition is "Shawn Ireland - Pots and Paintings". Additionally, our online exhibition is "Ceramics by Dan Anderson". Join us for an artists reception on September 3rd at 6pm.
South by Southwest is a exhibit of collaborative pieces by Arizona potter Jason Bohnet and Georgia potter Mark Knott. Jason's work is heavily influenced by the natural world and travels to China, Italy, and all over the U.S. Most heavily he draws from Chinese folk pottery and the tradition of tea. The forms that interest Mark most reflect his love of the ocean: boats, water, continual movement, and repetitive patterns. These forms are softened by an ever changing color pallet and the atmosphere of his soda kiln This exhibition reaches across borders, miles of country, firing temperatures and differences in shape and form, to focus on commonalities between creative thinkers, makers of utilitarian objects, and soda-firing lovers of surface and decoration.
Pots and Painting
s is an exhibition of pottery and paintings by Penland artist Shawn Ireland. Shawn utilizes local clays and glaze materials in his pottery described as both rustic and modern. His recent figurative candleholders and bowls have been influenced by travels to Italy where he experienced folk maiolica traditions and Etruscan antiquities. Still life and landscape have been the subjects of his paintings. ‘Pots & Paintings’ will be the first time Shawn has exhibited both his passions side by side.
Dan Anderson's work is an amalgam of vessel and industrial artifact. His pieces are handmade replicas of man made objects, soft clay renderings of metal objects aged and impotent reminders of a once powerful age. By firing his pieces in his anagama kiln, he is convinced that instead of merely heating the clay, the flame and ash have the capacity to alter and enhance his clay cans. The etched surface, created by sustained three to five day firing, imbues a "poetic" richness.
These exhibitions will open on September 3rd and remain through October 29th. Artists reception is Saturday Sept 3rd as well at 6pm. Each exhibition will also be available online starting September 3rd. For more information call 828-688-3599 or online at www.crimsonlaurelgallery.com.

Maiden Voyage
Got up early this morning to get to the community studio where I work, before all the masses arrive, to set up my new photography rig for the first time. I've had a trial or two on separate parts but this is the first time for the whole shebang. It's based on Michael Coffee's photo setup (link below) and if his was done on the cheap, then mine was done on the even cheaper. There are some bugs to work out (I need bulbs that aren't so bright among other things) but not too bad for the maiden voyage, I think.

Empty Bowls: Collector's Corner
Hello Clay Friends,
The Empty Bowls Luncheon benefiting MANNA FoodBank will take place on Monday, September 26th. Because of the growth of this wonderful fundraiser we will be adding an evening meal at a different location at the Hilton in Biltmore Square Park. Over the years, John Hartom and I have headed up the Collector's Corner section of the event requesting exceptional bowls to be sold at market price. It has become a prized part of the event and most pieces sell! Many of you have donated in the past and I am asking you to consider donating for this year's event. We will feature the Collector's Corner at both events so we need your work.
Let me know if you can help out or have questions. You may drop off items (they don't have to be bowls...) at Hand in Hand Gallery or at MANNA in Asheville, or contact me for pick up.
Hoping you can help, thanks,
David

Whistlepig Studio Blog
I thought I'd post a little about a fellow clay artist blog, that has a lot to offer:
http://www.whistlepigstudio.blogspot.com/
In Jill's own words: "The blog is developing into a critical reflection of contemporary ceramic culture and exhibitions. As a maker, a writer and a curator I am interested in investigating broader topics within ceramics that draw parallels for all stakeholders: makers, patrons, students, dealers, etc. The goal of Whistlepig Studio Blog is to strike a voice, which is part Twain, part Burroughs, with the depth and breadth of the New Yorker through monthly essays, featured project links, transcriptions of anonymous dialogues and artist spotlight interviews."
So take a look and see what she is up to and check back in from time to time to see how things evolve.
