Originally this page was intended as a guide to owners photographing dashboards in order for me to insert a vignette of their car's dashboard alongside the drawing. Getting a decent result was not just difficult but nigh impossible on some cars. The dashboards of open top sports car's are okay as one can stand at the rear and see the whole thing and usually in good lighting. Saloons and coupés, particularly later models often covered with black vinyl that triggers the flash on the camera. Then there's headrests that get in the way when one has to get into the back seat. So I've given up expecting a useable picture. However, reference is still necessary, as on all new drawings I intend to actually draw the dashboard. To give scale it would be very helpful if somehow you can include a tape measure or ruler when you photograph a dashboard.
