I definitely need to get into this new groove of trying new oils.
I've still got the same miniature bottle of eucalyptus that I've had
for years. I think I'm going to head to the Vitamin store and try to
order Cajeput oil and other stuff.

Anyway, what kind of camera are you using? Advice for a regular
camera: I think that if you take the picture slightly farther away
you'll get better results, and scanning in a tiny version of a clear
picture will come out tons better than scanning in a lighter,
blurrier one. IT's always hard for me when I henna my own hand - my
hand only goes back about two feet from my camera lens and I always
get a really weird photo angle.

Generally speaking, pictures show up on screen at 72 dpi, so when
scanning try to choose your resolution (try 100 or 150 dpi for a good
screen scan) and don't select the "scan to screen" option - you'll
get a very tiny picture and you won't be able to work with it too
easily. If you have a blurry picture to work with you can try
the "sharpen" command in your scanning or photo editing program, but
that doesn't usually work too well for me. If you need to blow up a
small picture, I suggest scanning the photo at a high dpi from the
outset. Image expansion options in photoshop only go so far (though
if you have to do it, I recommend "free-transforming" the layer) If
I'm answering the wrong question let me know - what problems are you
having that lead you to blurry photos?
