Thanks for the advice, Mike.
It was all good news from you. No need for my husband to buy a tripod for me, he's now your No. 1 fan! As for the shutter release, he will not notice that one.
It opens up a lot of possibilities for me now that I can play about with photographs in Photoshop. I did some experimenting after I read your comments, and some of the effects I can obtain are amazing. I just wish I had known about the lighting filter long ago. Never mind, better late than never.
I am attaching the final picture of my painting. (Unless anybody can suggest any more improvements - other than re-painting it!)
I am now making plans for my next one with a lot more confidence.
He has agreed to pose for more photographs, but unfortunately, he does not approve of my sending photographs of him over the web as Cynthia suggested.
