    Homemade Light Box Part 1

    Well I see I'm not the only one that was inspired by the Snakebytes and Robin's post so here is my first attempt with my light box I made. After seeing the improvement I think I'm going to make a much better one tonight. Here's a couple shots of Webster who was a very good model

    Any constructive criticism is welcome! I think I need more light.

    Nice spider! Yeah I have been playing with all the options for aperature, wb, flash etc etc.....make sure you have your camera close to the box...i noticed that if too far away the flash would escape and not get in...good luck

    I think more light would help, and I agree getting the camera right up in the box would keep the flash more effective. Nice shots, when I get a better camera I will be making a light box too.

    Re: Homemade Light Box Part 1

    Thanks Guys. The 1st and 3rd shot are no flash at all, the 2nd was with the flash. I went out and got a better brighter light so we'll see how it goes with Part 2 of my adventure. I'm gonna read my manual and see what my camera can do, its by no means a great camera but for now it will have to do.

    Thanks again to Robin for getting my lazy butt moving
