Using the sunlamp helps, but any photo taken before sunrise (today: 8:07 am) or after sunset (today: 4:20 pm) still comes out with too much contrast and unnatural colors.
But Wax and I have both been knitting bunches, plus several people have asked me to show them pictures of things (shadowbox, dog in his puppy sweater, etc). I finished a sweater for Wax last week (although we're planning to rip the buttonband off and make a different one because it doesn't lie right) and she finished one for me a few weeks before that, and I still haven't managed to get good, well-lit pictures of either one.
