When to take photos

Unfortunately we don't have much sunshine in our apartment. It was built in 2007, and most apartments these days in Japan were built on the strict building law against earthquake. They should not have big windows, if they do not have a huge budget!

I take photos for my Etsy shop in our apartment. And I have noticed there is difference between photos in the morning and in the afternoon.

(I used the same camera using the same mode, and I have not used photoshop)


Japanese eco bag with wool kimono
1) A photo taken in the morning.

This is what I took this morning, around 8:30 am in our living room. The bag was hung on the white wall, and it looks OK (to me). The wall looks kind of pink-graysh.










Orange bird pencil case
2) A photo taken in the evening.

I took this photo around 16 pm in the same place as the photo above. It looks blue-graysh and does not look OK. I uploaded the photo on my Etsy shop anyway, but I do think I have to re-take the photo.

So obviously, I should do photo-shooting in the morning, between 8 and 9 am. The light has very important roll for photos!
