Yeah, you take care. The photographs that I'm shuddering at have the book at an awkward angle, the picture blurry, and the camera flash on.
Back when I had a scanner I used to just throw my books on the flatbed and scan the covers. It worked up until something went wrong with the thing and it started spewing rainbow lines on everything. (I'm all for LGBT+ equality, but not on my scans.)
