The tool you need to help get the best results is called a "Copy Stand".
As you can see, there are many different styles. Table top, bench or floor. with and without lights.
Another sojourn into the hidden niches of photography awaits you!

Thanks Photogirl17 (Lesley) for hosting another Free Weekend, a lot of nice photos there.

This challenge โ€œFlat Lay Photographyโ€ is great for all kinds of things (small in nature) โ€“ books, food, jewelry, collectibles, etc! The idea behind Flay Lay photography is simply taking a picture from straight up above with no angle at all. Which can be tricky. I get to use this when the wife wants a photo of designs from the embroidery machine.
Helpful Hints:
If you donโ€™t have a good lighting set up always try to use available natural light. I have used 2 small table lamps with 65watt/5500 degree kelvin ledโ€™s rated light bulbs when in a pinch.
Try to keep shadows down to a minimum, I believe harsh shadows are to distracting.
Always try to use complimentary colors for a background.

I decided to use some old School Books for this challenge.

An advance thank you to all who contributes to this challenge.

Very nice start, Bob. I have done very little of this at least I didn't know this is what it is called. I've tried to capture a shot of any jigsaw puzzles Dee has finish. I'm pretty sure her puzzles lay flat so should qualify as "flat lay". Meanwhile out in the shop I played with some.
