We don't have a scanner here.
Jane needed some pictures of her Princeton friends for her
Spanish project.
So, she decided to experiment with ways of getting good
enough pictures using the digital camera essentially as a scanner.
Those of you who think this was a silly idea are referred to
where David and Sarah were able to use
the results of previous research about photography off
the television set.
The first pictures washed out

P6030004
P6030006
P6030007
P6030008
P6030009
P6030010
P6030011
P6030012
P6030013
P6030014
P6030015
P6030016
P6030020
P6030033
P6030034
P6030038
P6030039
P6030040

even when she caught corners of the carpet
P6030002
with these
P6030005
P6030021
being about the best she got
except for the distortions
P6030017
P6030018
P6030019
which we found amusing but very bad.
There were also some weird background pictures
P6030022
P6030023
P6030024
P6030025
P6030026
P6030028
even when blurred or taken with rug backgrounds
P6030027
P6030029
P6030030
P6030031
P6030032
P6030036
At this point, Sarah appeared
P6030035
and a few pictures came out better
P6030037
P6030041
P6030043
P6030044
P6030045
P6030046
P6030047
P6030048
P6030049
P6030050
P6030051
P6030052
P6030053
or maybe we just became more tolerant of the complexity of the
task at hand.
