DIY photo box
« on: September 05, 2017, 06:11:00 PM »
I found on the net a DIY photo box tutorial, as  an open minded I am I decided to try it out.... Components are a simple paper box, three table lamps, three same light bolts and common kitchen baking paper. The box is cut on tree sides with about 2 cm frame left, reinforced with plane self adhesive tape and then the kitchen paper is applied over again with the tape. The table lamps are putted on three sides out of the box, to get light on the paper, the paper equalize the light " killing " the spot light effect.... these are some first shots, the upper light bolt is not same as the two on the side, grey background but I will try out white one as well, pictures taken with the phone... in a few days I will make final settings and share it with you chaps

Black background also can work well
