:doh: Silly me forgot to ask for proper pics of our 12week scan, and all we have are x-ray pics. Can anyone give me some tips on taking photos of them with the camera?
I tried against the window but ended up getting everything else in the background through the clear bits in the film (bugger!). And every other shot I have done gets background bits and blurs the u/s.
I also have a flat bed scanner but like I thought, that didn't work at all!
Can you place it flat on a white background then take a photo with a polarising filter (to eliminate shine)?
Alternatively if you take it to a professional photography lab they should be able to make some good prints for you.
I held it up to the light but away from the window.. I set it p so the light was shinging behind it but not with the glare.. it justtakes patience to get it right...
this is the pic I took at my 12 week Us..

that pic look great aussienic!
i hope you get a decent pic to keep alisia!
If you use the scanner, dont put the lid down;)
I didnt ask for pics of my scans either, thats how I beat it!
Sarah, you've saved the day... I've tried everything with my camera, but it just didn't work! I knew there was a scanner trick... I just couldn't work out what!
Those pics will be up shortly!
agh I wish i had known the scanner trick.. would have saved a lot of time lol..
Looking forward to seeing the pics
nic... lol, i tried so many different angles and settings on my camera, but nothing seemed to work... its probably just me though, I'm not the worlds most adept photographer!
lol.. I had dh helping me out tho.. One of us held it up at all different angles ect lol..
Yeah, we did ours on the scanner, and found shining a light over it whilst it was scanning did the trick. We had a fluorescent lamp that we used.
Ok, scanning has done the trick, I have some great photos up now in the BB gallery (including a few of Bubble mooning the camera... have a look tell me pink or blue? lol!) 12w4d Ultrasound pics
I've only put a few in the BB gallery, and the rest are on my totsite in my sig :)
Awww how cute!
They came out really good Alisia!!
Hey Leash... your bub has got some gender clues!! Prob is your pic is a little small... reckon you could email me a copy so i can have a better look? Just use the address for my IM in my profile
the pic on my totsite comes up a lot bigger... but is a bit blurry, I think that was the scanning though, so I am going to have to scan again me thinks!
When I had my u/s pics on film I held them up to a blank comp screen and took photos
BTW I am talking about the full body profile pic
Email coming through (hope its the right one, i used the email in your profile...) :)
Nothing yet....
wow they turned out great!
I think it's pink!!
Just remember tho, 13 week guesses are far from 100%
Good luck :D
